THIS CRIMINAL MISC. CASE HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 19/02/2010, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY PASSED THE FOLLOWING: prv. M.Sasidharan Nambiar, J. -------------------------- Crl.M.C.No.585 of 2010 -------------------------- ORDER Petitioner is the fifth accused in S.C.No. 514/2005 on the file of Additional Assistant Sessions Court, Kollam. A non bailable warrant is pending. This petition is filed for a direction to the Additional Assistant Sessions Judge to enlarge the petitioner on bail on the date of his surrender. 2. Learned counsel appearing for the petitioner was heard. 3. When an accused surrenders and files an application for bail, Additional Assistant Sessions Judge is expected to pass orders on the application without delay. It is for the Additional Assistant Sessions Judge to consider the application and decide whether he is to be released on bail or not, in accordance with law. I find no reason to believe that Magistrate is unaware of the provisions of law CRMC 585/10 2 or the decisions of this Court or the Apex Court or that Magistrate will not act in accordance with law. Hence, no direction is warranted. Petition is disposed. 19th February, 2010 (M.Sasidharan Nambiar, Judge) tkv
