Admittedly non-bailable warrants of arrest are pending against the petitioners. Anticipatory bail cannot be granted to nullify the process issued by a court of competent jurisdiction. There is no reason why the petitioners should not surrender before the Court below and seek regular bail. Accordingly, if the petitioners surrender before the court below and file an application for regular bail within two weeks from today, the same shall be considered and disposed of, preferably, on the same date on which it is filed notwithstanding the pendency of non-bailable warrants of arrest against the petitioners. This Bail Application is, accordingly, disposed of. Dated this the 16th day of March, 2011 V. RAMKUMAR,(JUDGE) sj
