SALIM, PUBLIC PROSECUTOR THIS BAIL APPLICATION HAVING BEEN FINALLY HEARD ON 05/04/2010, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY PASSED THE FOLLOWING: V. RAMKUMAR, J. ----------------------------------- Bail Application No. 1797 of 2010 ---------------------------------- Dated this the 5th day of April, 2010. O R D E R Petitioners who are the accused in Crime No.40 of 2010 of Peermade Police Station, Idukki District for offences punishable under Sections 341, 323, 324, 308 and 427 I.P.C., seek anticipatory bail. 2. The learned Public Prosecutor opposed the application. 3. Anticipatory bail cannot be granted in a case of this nature. But at the same time, I am inclined to permit the petitioners to surrender before the Investigating Officer for the purpose of interrogation and then to have their application for bail considered by the Magistrate having jurisdiction. Accordingly, the petitioners shall surrender before the investigating officer on 16-04-2010 or 17- 04-2010 for the purpose of interrogation and recovery of incriminating material, if any. The petitioners shall thereafter appear before the Magistrate who on being satisfied that the petitioners have been interrogated by the police shall consider and dispose of their applications for regular bail preferably on the same date on which it is filed. This petition is disposed of as above. Dated this the 5th day of April, 2010. V.RAMKUMAR, JUDGE. rv
