Bail Application No. 4194 of 2009 .......................................... Dated: 22-3-2010 ORDER Petitioner who is the accused in Crime No. 1365 of 2008 of Kottarakkara Police Station for an offence punishable under Section 420 read with Sec. 34 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 26-03-2010 or 27-3-2010 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 consider and dispose of his application for regular bail preferably on the same date on which it is filed. This petition is disposed of as above. Dated this the 22nd day of March, 2010. Sd/-V.RAMKUMAR, JUDGE ani /true copy/
