CASE HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 06/10/2008, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY PASSED THE FOLLOWING: Rs/ R.BASANT, J. ---------------------- Crl.M.C.No.3720 of 2008 ---------------------------------------- Dated this the 6th day of October 2008 O R D E R The petitioners who face indictment as accused 1,2 and 3 in a prosecution for offence punishable inter alia under Section 323 read with 34 I.P.C, all offences alleged being bailable, who were enlarged on bail again after cognizance was taken; who have not been appearing before the learned Magistrate after 15/5/2008 for reasons which are not intentional or deliberate and against whom warrants of arrest have issued by the learned Magistrate have come to this court with the prayer that directions under Section 482 Cr.P.C may be issued to the learned Magistrate to comply with the directions in Alice George vs.Deputy Superintendent of Police [2003(1)KLT 339] and to consider their application for bail to be filed by them when they surrender before the learned Magistrate on merits, in accordance with law and expeditiously - on the date of surrender itself. 2. Sufficient general directions have already been issued in Alice George (Supra). It is not necessary for this court in every subsequent case to issue directions to the Crl.M.C.No.3720/08 2 Magistracy to follow the dictum in Alice George (Supra). Every court is bound to do the same. I have no reason to assume that the same shall not be done. If the directions are not complied with the avenues of challenge/complaint are available for the petitioner. 3. In the result, this petition is dismissed subject to the above specific observations. Hand over copy of this order to the learned counsel for the petitioners for production before the learned Magistrate. (R.BASANT, JUDGE) jsr Crl.M.C.No.3720/08 3 Crl.M.C.No.3720/08 4 R.BASANT, J.
