BY PUBLIC PROSECUTOR SI.AMJAD ALI THIS BAIL APPLICATION HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 24/12/2007, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY PASSED THE FOLLOWING: V.K.MOHANAN, J. --------------------------------------------------- Bail Application No. 7955 of 2007 ----------------------------------------------------- Dated this the 24th day of December, 2007 O R D E R In this application filed under Sec. 438 Cr.P.C. the petitioner, who is the accused in Crime No. 749/2007 of Hosdurg Police Station for offences punishable under sections 143, 147, 148, 332 and 308 read with section 149 IPC, seeks anticipatory Bail. 2. The learned Public Prosecutor opposed the application. 3. Anticipatory bail cannot be granted in a case involving such grave offence. It is too early to accept the petitioner's contention that the petitioner has been falsely implicated. There is no reason why the petitioner should not surrender before the Magistrate concerned and seek regular bail. Accordingly, the application is disposed of by directing that If the petitioner surrenders before the Magistrate concerned within two weeks from today and files an application for regular bail, the same shall be considered and disposed of by the Magistrate preferably on the same day on which it is filed bearing in mind the decision in Sukumari v. State of Kerala - 2001 (1) KLT 22. V.K.MOHANAN, JUDGE. mn
