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 applications for bail considered by the Magistrate having jurisdiction. Accordingly, the petitioners shall surrender before the investigating officer on any day between 29-5-2007 and 31-5-2007 for the purpose of interrogation and recovery of incriminating material, if any. The petitioners shall thereafter be produced on the B.A.2413/2007 2 same day before the Magistrate who shall consider their applications for regular bail preferably on the same date on which such applications are filed. The application is disposed of as above. V.RAMKUMAR, JUDGE mrcs
