BY PUBLIC PROSECUTOR SHRI. JAI GEORGE THIS BAIL APPLICATION HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 16/01/2007, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY PASSED THE FOLLOWING: V.Ramkumar, J. ======================== B.A.No. 105 of 2007 ======================== Dated this the 16th day of January, 2007. ORDER Petitioners, who are accused Nos. 1 and 2 in Crime No.725 of 2006 of Venjaramood Police Station for offences punishable under Sections 420, 465 and 468 read with Section 34 I.P.C., seek anticipatory bail. 2. The learned public Prosecutor opposed the application. The case of the prosecution is that the accused persons had cheated the de facto complainant by preparing a forged sale deed in favour of the first petitioner with regard to nearly 1 acre of land belonging to the de facto complainant. 3. Anticipatory bail cannot be granted in a case of this nature. But at the same time I am inclined to grant the petitioner an opportunity to surrender before the Investigating Officer for interrogation and then to have his application for regular bail considered by the Magistrate concerned. Accordingly, the petitioner shall surrender before the Investigating Officer on any day between 18.1.2007 and 20.1.2007 for the purpose of interrogation and BA 105/07 -: 2 :- recovery of incriminating material, if any. The petitioner shall thereafter be produced before the Magistrate concerned on the same day. The Magistrate shall consider and dispose of the application, if any, filed by the petitioner for regular bail preferably on the same date on which it is filed. With this direction, this petition is disposed of. V.Ramkumar, Judge. ess 16/1
