Learned Public Prosecutor opposed the application submitting, inter alia, that the petitioner, a habitual offender is an accused in two other crimes. I am not inclined to grant bail to the petitioner, who is a habitual offender. At the same time, the respective cases against the petitioner ought to be disposed of expeditiously. Accordingly, these petitions are dismissed with a direction to the Chief Judicial Magistrate, Manjeri to consider and dispose of C.C.Nos.579/05, 376/03 and 104/06 expeditiously and at any rate, within six months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order.
