B.A. NO. 1767 of 2010 .......................................... Dated: 26-03-2010 ORDER Petitioner who is accused No. 1 in Crime No. 131 of 2010 of Sreekandapuram Police Station (Kannur District) for an offence punishable under Section 498 A I.P.C. seeks anticipatory bail. 2. The learned Public Prosecutor opposed the application. 3. Anticipatory bail cannot be granted in a case of this nature. But at the same time, I am inclined to permit the petitioner to surrender before the Investigating Officer for the purpose of interrogation and then to have his application for bail considered by the Magistrate having jurisdiction. Accordingly, the petitioner shall surrender before the investigating officer on 6-4-2010 or 7-4-2010 for the purpose of interrogation and recovery of incriminating material, if any. The petitioner shall thereafter appear before the Magistrate who on being satisfied that the petitioner has been interrogated by the police shall consider and dispose of his application for regular bail preferably on the same date on which it is filed. This petition is disposed of as above. Dated this the 26 th day of March, 2010. V.RAMKUMAR, JUDGE ani
