M.SASIDHARAN NAMBIAR,J. =========================== CRL.M.C.No. 966 OF 2010 =========================== Dated this the 19th day of March,2010 ORDER Petitioner is the accused in S.T.26/2009 on the file of Judicial First Class Magistrate Court-III, Kollam. This petition is filed for a direction to the Magistrate to consider the application for bail on the date of his surrender, contending that a non bailable warrant is pending. 2. When an accused surrenders and files an application for bail, Magistrate is expected to pass orders in the application without delay. I find no reason to believe that the Magistrate is unaware of the provisions of law or the decisions of this Court or the Apex Court or that the Magistrate will not act in accordance with law. Hence no direction is warranted. Crl.M.C.966/2010 2 Petition is disposed.
