RAMKUMAR, J. ----------------------------------- Bail Application No. 2817 of 2008 ---------------------------------- Dated this the 23nd day of May, 2008. O R D E R Petitioners who are the accused in Crime No. 309 of 2008 of Chengamanadu Police Station for offences punishable under Sections 143, 147, 148, 452 and 511 and 427 I.P.C., seek anticipatory bail. 2. The learned Public Prosecutor opposed the application. 3. Anticipatory bail cannot be granted in a case of this nature. But at the same time, I am inclined to permit the petitioners to surrender before the Investigating Officer for the purpose of interrogation and then to have their application for bail considered by the Magistrate having jurisdiction. Accordingly, the petitioners shall surrender before the investigating officer on any day between 28.05.2008 and 30.05.2008 for the purpose of interrogation and recovery of incriminating material, if any. The petitioners shall thereafter be produced on the same day before the Magistrate who shall consider and dispose of their application for regular bail preferably on the same date on which it is filed. This petition is disposed of as above. V.RAMKUMAR, JUDGE. rv
