RAMKUMAR, J. ................................... B.A. No. 103 of 2011 .................................. Dated: 14-01-2011 O R D E R In this Petition filed under Sec. 438 Cr.P.C. the petitioner who is the accused in Crime No. 1467 of 2010 of Changanacherry Police Station for offences punishable under Sections 420 and 406 I.P.C. seeks anticipatory bail. 2. The learned Public Prosecutor, on instructions, submitted that after the conclusion of investigation a final report has already been filed before the trial Court. If so, it is not desirable to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioner since he cannot be directed to appear before the Investigating Officer after the conclusion of investigation and after the matter is in the seizin of the Court . The appropriate order in such circumstances can only be one to direct the petitioner to surrender before the trial Court and seek regular bail. Bail A.No. 103 of 2011 -:2:- Accordingly, the petitioner is directed to surrender before the trial Court and apply for regular bail within two weeks from today. In case the petitioner complies with the above direction, the trial Court shall consider and dispose of the application for bail on merits preferably on the same date on which it is filed, notwithstanding the non-bailable warrants, if any, pending against the petitioner. This application is disposed of as above. Dated, this the 14th day of January, 2011. Sd/-V.RAMKUMAR, JUDGE. ani/ /true copy/ P.S. to judge
