SIVAKUMAR, PUBLIC PROSECUTOR THIS BAIL APPLICATION HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 22/05/2008, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY PASSED THE FOLLOWING: V. RAMKUMAR, J. ====================== Bail Application No. 3249 of 2008 ======================= Dated this the 22nd day of May, 2008. O R D E R Petitioner who is the accused in Crime No. 9 of 2007 of Taliparamba Police Station for offences punishable under Sections 341, 324 and 308 r/w Section 34 I.P.C., seeks anticipatory bail. 2. Consequent on the non-appearance of the petitioner in C.P. No. 122 of 2007 on the file of the J.F.C.M, Taliparamba non- bailable warrants of arrest are pending against the petitioner. Anticipatory bail cannot be granted to nullify the process issued by a court of competent jurisdiction. There is no reason why the petitioner should not surrender before the Magistrate and seek regular bail. Accordingly, if the petitioner surrenders before the Magistrate and files an application for regular bail within two weeks from today, the same shall be considered and disposed of preferably on the same day on which it is filed after considering the explanation offered by the petitioner for his previous non-appearance, notwithstanding the pendency of non-bailable warrants of arrest against the petitioner. With the above observation this application is disposed of . V.RAMKUMAR, JUDGE. rv
