RAMKUMAR, J. ------------------------------- Bail Application No.1550 of 2007 ------------------------------- DATED: 8th March, 2007 O R D E R Petitioner who is the 2nd accused in Crime No. 76 of 2001 of Nemara Police Station for offences punishable under Sections 143,147, 148, 341 and 324 read with Sec. 149 I.P.C., seeks anticipatory bail. 2. Consequent on the non-appearance of the petitioner in C.C. 919/01 on the file of the J.F.C.M., Alathur, the case against him was split up and re-filed as C.C. 869/05. Admittedly, non-bailable warrants of arrest are pending against the petitioner. 4. Anticipatory bail cannot be granted in a case of this nature. There is no reason why the petitioner should not surrender before the J.F.C.M., Alathur and seek regular bail. Accordingly, if the petitioner surrenders before the Magistrate and files an application for regular bail within two weeks from today, the same shall be considered and disposed of preferably on the same date on which it is filed after examining the explanation offered by the petitioner for his previous non-appearance. With the above observation this application is disposed of. Sd/-V.RAMKUMAR, JUDGE. ani
