The petitioners apprehend that they may be arrested as accused in Crime No. 4 of 2008 of Idukki police station on the allegation that they have committed non-bailable offences. 2. The learned Prosecutor, after taking instructions, submits that while it is true that the petitioners are accused in the said crime, no allegation of any non-bailable offences are raised against them. They can surrender before the Investigating Officer or the learned Magistrate and claim bail under Section 436 Cr.P.C. as of right. The apprehension of the petitioners, in these circumstances, is not justified, submits the learned Prosecutor. 3. I find merit in the opposition of the learned Prosecutor. In as much as no allegation of non-bailable offence is raised against the petitioners, this petition is dismissed as agreed. (R. BASANT) tm Judge
