Admittedly, the petitioner has been absconding before the J.F.C.M-II, Neyyatinkara, where the said case is pending. 3. The circumstances under which non bailable warrants of arrest came to be issued against the petitioner are not discernible to this Court. It is only proper that the petitioner surrenders before the trial court and seeks regular bail. Accordingly, this Criminal Miscellaneous Case is disposed of permitting the petitioner to surrender before the learned Magistrate and file an application for regular bail within a period of two weeks from today. In case the petitioner complies with the Crl.M.C.No.44 of 2008 2 above condition, her bail application shall be considered and disposed of on merits preferably on the same date, on which the petition is filed after considering the explanation, if any, offered by the petitioner for her previous non- appearance.
