The learned Public Prosecutor submitted that it is true that the petitioner reported before the investigating officer for interrogation but he was not granted bail as it was felt that the matter would be squared up between the de facto complainant and the petitioner and that was the reason why the petitioner was not enlarged on bail. 3. That is not a valid justification on the part of the investigating officer in not complying with the order of the Sessions court. The petitioner having reported before the investigating officer, as directed in the bail order was bound to to be released on bail after he was formally arrested. Accordingly, if the petitioner surrenders Bail Application No. 507/07 -:2:- before the investigating officer on any day between 8-2-2007 and 12- 2-2007, he shall be released on bail for a period of two months in compliance of the bail order granted by the Sessions Court. With the above observation, this petition is disposed of . V. RAMKUMAR, (JUDGE) ani.
