BY PUBLIC PROSECUTOR SRI. M.S. BREEZ THIS BAIL APPLICATION HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 22/11/2010, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY PASSED THE FOLLOWING: Kss V.RAMKUMAR, J. ---------------------------------------------- Bail Application No.7330 of 2010 ------------------------------------------------ Dated this the 22nd day of November, 2010 ORDER The petitioner, who is the accused in Crime No.208 of 2009 of Traffic Police Station, Palakkad for offences punishable under Sections 279 & 304-A I.P.C., seeks anticipatory bail. 2. Consequent on the non-appearance of the petitioner in C.C.No.72 of 2009 on the file of the Chief Judicial Magistrate, Palakkad, the case against the petitioner has been transferred to the Long Pending Case Register as L.P.No.5 of 2010. Admittedly, non- bailable warrants of arrest are pending against the petitioner. Anticipatory bail cannot be granted to nullify the process issued by a court of competent jurisdiction. There is no reason why the petitioner should not surrender before the Magistrate and seek regular bail. Accordingly, if the petitioner surrenders before the Magistrate and files an application for regular bail within Bail Appln.No.7330/2010 : 2 : two weeks from today, the same shall be considered and disposed of preferably on the same day on which it is filed notwithstanding the pendency of non-bailable warrants of arrest against the petitioner and also after considering the explanation offered by the petitioner for his previous non-appearance, if any. With the above observation this application is disposed of. V.RAMKUMAR, JUDGE skj
