Public Prosecutor has no objection. The petitioner was the 6th accused in C.C.No.374 of 1998 on the file of Judicial Magistrate of the First Class-II, Thrissur. The offences alleged are under Sections 143, 147, 447, 341, 506, 294(b) and 509 r/w 149 of I.P.C. Since the petitioner was employed abroad, he could not present in court and therefore the case against the petitioner is split up and refiled as L.P.No.84 of 2002. Non bailable warrant is pending against the petitioner. 2. Since the petitioner is willing to surrender and face trial, practically no purpose will be served by sending the petitioner to jail. Hence this petition is allowed. The petitioner is directed to surrender before the trial court on or before 10.07.2009. On such surrender, the learned Magistrate may allow the petitioner to go on bail. While releasing the petitioner on bail the learned Magistrate may impose suitable conditions.
