RAMKUMAR, J. =============================== Bail Application No.1233 of 2009 =============================== DATED: 20.03.2009 O R D E R Petitioner, who is the accused in Crime No.132 of 2009 of Chengannur Police Station for offences punishable under Section I.P.C., seeks 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 petitioner to surrender before the Investigating Officer for the purpose of interrogation and then to have his application for bail considered by the Magistrate having jurisdiction. Accordingly, the petitioner shall surrender before the investigating officer on any day between 26.03.09 and 28.03.09 for the purpose of interrogation and recovery of incriminating material, if any. The petitioner shall thereafter be produced on the same day before the Magistrate who shall release the petitioner on bail on appropriate conditions. This petition is disposed of as above. V.RAMKUMAR, JUDGE sj
