He has come to this Court seeking anticipatory bail. The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that earlier, this Court, by order dated 14.08.07 in B.A.No.4854/07 dismissed the bail application of the co-accused subject to certain observations. The petitioner shall be satisfied if identical directions/observations are given in respect of the petitioner herein also. 2. The learned Public Prosecutor does not oppose the said prayer and I am satisfied that this application deserves to be dismissed with identical observations. 3. This bail application is, in these circumstances, dismissed. Needless to say that if the petitioner surrender before the Investigating Officer or the learned Magistrate and applies for bail after giving sufficient prior notice to the prosecutor in charge of the case, the learned Magistrate must proceed to pass appropriate orders on merits, in accordance with law and expeditiously.
