HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE SAMUDRALA GOVINDA RAJULU CRL.PETITION NO.2822 OF 2010 ORDER: The petitioners 1 to 11/A-1 to A-11 are accused of offences punishable under Sections 147, 148, 323, 354 and 149 IPC. This Court by order dated 06.05.2009 in Criminal Miscellaneous Petition No.2941 of 2009 in Criminal Miscellaneous Petition No.3101 of 2009, granted stay of arrest of the petitioners pending investigation, while permitting investigation to go on. After completing investigation, the police filed charge sheet before the Magistrate. After taking cognizance of the offences, the Magistrate issued summonses to A-1 to A-11, in pursuance of which A-1 to A-11 appeared before the Magistrate. The case is pending committal before the Magistrate. At that stage the petitioners approached the I Additional Sessions Judge, Rajahmundry for anticipatory bail under Section 438 Cr.P.C. The I Additional Sessions Judge dismissed the petition holding that there are no non-bailable warrants pending against the petitioners. In a Preliminary Registration Case in which the accused appeared before the Magistrate after receiving summonses, the proper procedure is to furnish personal and bail bonds to the Magistrate for appearance before the Sessions Court, when the Magistrate is going to pass an order of committal. There was no necessity for the accused to seek anticipatory bail before the Sessions Court at that stage. Having regard to all the circumstances of the case, the petitioners 1 to 11/A-1 to A-11 are directed to furnish personal bonds for Rs.10,000/- (Rupees ten thousand only) each together with two sureties each for the like sum each to the satisfaction of the committal court before passing the committal order. The petition is ordered accordingly. ____________________________________ SAMUDRALA GOVINDARAJULU,J. Date:29.03.2010. Gk.
