KRISHNAN, J ----------------------- CRL.M.C.No. 997 OF 2009 --------------------------------- Dated this the 13th day of March, 2009 O R D E R This is an application filed with a prayer to direct the Additional district and Sessions Court (Special Court) Kottayam to release the petitioner on the date of surrender itself in L.P. No. 1/2002 of the said court. 2. Heard the counsel for the petitioner as well as the Public Prosecutor. The prosecutor submits that it is a sensational case and the petitioner has been evading presence before the court though the offence is of very early years in 1996. Whatever it may be, if the petitioner surrenders before the court and moves an application for bail, I direct the learned Sessions Judge to consider and dispose of the bail application as expeditiously as possible with due notice to the prosecutor. The Crl.M.C is disposed of accordingly. M.N. KRISHNAN, JUDGE vkm
