RAMKUMAR, J. ----------------------------------- Bail Application No. 331 of 2009 ---------------------------------- Dated this the 5th day of March, 2009. O R D E R Petitioner who is the accused in Crime No. 8 of 2009 of Kolavalloor Police Station for offences punishable under Sections 465, 468, 471 and 420 I.P.C., seeks anticipatory bail. 2. The learned Public Prosecutor opposed the application. 3. Anticipatory bail cannot be granted in a case of this nature. But at the same time, I am inclined to permit the petitioner to surrender before the Investigating Officer for the purpose of interrogation and then to have his application for bail considered by the Magistrate having jurisdiction. Accordingly, the petitioner shall surrender before the investigating officer on any day between 11.03.2009 and 13.03.2009 for the purpose of interrogation and recovery of incriminating material, if any. The petitioner shall thereafter be produced on the same day before the Magistrate who shall release the petitioner on bail. This petition is disposed of as above. Dated this the 5th day of March, 2009. V.RAMKUMAR, JUDGE. rv
