Learned Public Prosecutor opposed the application. 3. The occurrence took place at about 1.30 a.m. on 22.12.2006 involving 9 assailants, who are alleged to have attacked the husband of the de facto complainant with deadly weapons like sword, etc. causing several injuries including fracture. 4. 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 interrogation and then to have their application for regular bail considered by the Magistrate concerned. Accordingly, the petitioners are directed to surrender before the Investigating Officer on any day between 22.2.2007 and 24.2.2007 for the purpose of interrogation and recovery of incriminating materials, if BA.855/07 : 2 : any. The petitioners shall, thereafter, be produced before the Magistrate having jurisdiction on the same day. The Magistrate shall consider and dispose of the application for regular bail, if any, filed by the petitioners, preferably on the same day on which it is filed. (V. RAMKUMAR, JUDGE) aks
