Currently, Anilkumar, K.S.Kumar, Anandkumar, Kadiravan and Jinna, held at Kadalur prison had appealed to Chennai high court requesting bail. During the hearing for the bail petitions, Durariaj – the counsel representing the government argued against bail as all five were directly involved in the case.

The defence attorneys argued that the main accused themselves were out on bail in this case.

Justice Raghupathy accepted their argument and ordered bail to be given to the five petitioners. He set the bail at Rs.10,000, payable at the Kanchipuram criminal court..

They were ordered to stay at Pondicherry and required to sign the court daily pending further instructions.
