This petition is filed under Section 482 of Code of Criminal Procedure for a direction to the Magistrate to consider the application for bail to be moved by the petitioner on the date of her surrender. 2. When an accused surrenders and files an application for bail, Magistrate is expected to pass orders on the application without delay. I find no reason to believe that Magistrate is unaware of the provisions of law or the decisions of this Court or the Apex Court or that Magistrate will not act in accordance with law. In such circumstances, no direction is warranted. Petition is disposed. 10th August, 2009 (M.Sasidharan Nambiar, Judge) tkv
