Anticipatory bail cannot be granted to nullify the process issued by a court of competent jurisdiction. If the petitioner has a grievance that he did not receive summons in the case, it is open to the petitioner to convince the Magistrate about this fact. Accordingly, if the petitioner surrenders before the Judl. First Class Magistrate, Thamarassery, and files an application for regular bail within two weeks from today, the same shall be considered on merits after examining the grievance of the petitioner that he did not receive summons and shall be disposed of preferably on the same date on which it is filed. Such consideration and disposal shall be notwithstanding the pendency of any warrants against the petitioner. With the above observation this application is dismissed. V. RAMKUMAR, JUDGE.
