It is only proper that the petitioners surrender before the learned Judge and seek regular bail. Accordingly, this Crl.M.C. is disposed of permitting the petitioners to surrender before the learned Judge and file an application for regular bail within a period of two weeks from today. In case, the petitioners comply with the above condition, their bail application shall be considered and disposed of on merits preferably on the same date on which it is filed notwithstanding the pendency of any non-bailable warrants against them.
