A. No.2853 of 2008 ------------------------------------------------ Dated this the 6th day of May, 2008 ORDER This is an application for anticipatory bail filed under Section 438 of the Cr.P.C. Petitioner is the third accused in Crime No.65/08 of Thaliparamba Police Station in Kannur district registered for offences under Sections 143, 147, 148, 436, 438 and 353 IPC read with Section 149 thereof. The occurrence in the case has taken place on 22/01/08. I have heard the submissions of the counsel for the petitioner and the submissions of the Public Prosecutor. Considering the gravity of the offence and the impact the offence has worked out in the law-and-order situation, I am not of the view that the petitioner can be enlarged on anticipatory bail. If so advised, the petitioner may surrender before the Magistrate concerned and thereafter move for regular bail. This application for anticipatory bail is dismissed. K.P.BALACHANDRAN, JUDGE kns/-
