No.1454 of 2009 =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Dated this the 30th day of April, 2009 O R D E R Petitioners who are accused Nos. 4, 8 and 21 in Crime No.415/1993 of the Kollam East Police Station for offences punishable under Sections 143, 147, 148, 149, 332, 151 and Section 3(2)(a) of The Prevention of Damage to Public Property Act, 1984 and whose case is now pending before the Chief Judicial Magistrate, Kollam as L.P. No. 163/2006 seeks a direction to the said Magistrate to release the petitioners on bail on the date of their surrender itself. 2. Admittedly, non-bailable warrants of arrest are pending against the petitioners. The circumstances under which those non-bailable warrants of arrest came to be issued against the petitioners are not discernible to this Court. It is only proper that the petitioners surrender before the learned Magistrate and seek regular bail. 3. Accordingly, this Crl.M.C. is disposed of permitting the petitioners to surrender before the learned Magistrate and file an application for regular bail within a period of two weeks from today. In case, the petitioners complie with the above condition, bail application shall be considered and disposed of on merits preferably on the same date on which it is filed notwithstanding the pendency of any non-bailable warrants, if any, against them.
