NO. 697 OF 2009 = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = Dated this the 17th day of February, 2009. O R D E R This petition is filed with a prayer to direct the Judicial First Class Magistrate Court-II, Palakkad to consider the bail application filed by the petitioner in L.P. 30/96 of Judicial First Class Magistrate-II Palakkad in Mankara Police Crime No.173/91. It has to be stated that the crime is registered in the year 1991 and it is pending in the long pending case register for almost 13 years from 1996. Now the petitioner wants the Court to consider the bail application the moment he surrenders before the Court. I do not want to say anything on it at this stage but I direct the learned Judicial First Class Magistrate-II, Palakkad to consider the bail application, in the event of surrender, as expeditiously as possible. The CRL.M.C. is disposed of accordingly. Sd/- M.N. KRISHNAN, JUDGE. ul/- // true copy // P.A. To Judge.
