SIVAKUMAR THIS BAIL APPLICATION HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 21/12/2006, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY PASSED THE FOLLOWING: V. Ramkumar, J. ======================== B.A.No.7522 of 2006 ======================== Dated this the 21st day of December, 2006. ORDER Petitioners, who are accused Nos. 1 to 5 in Crime No.719 of 2006 of Manjeri Police Station for offences punishable under Sections 143, 147, 148, 323, 324, 326 and 308 read with Section 149 I.P.C., seek anticipatory bail. 2. The occurrence took place on 1.12.2006 at 9.30 p.m. in which weapons like iron rod, iron pipe, knife, sword, stick, etc. are alleged to have been used and six persons have been injured of whom three have sustained fractures. 3. The learned Public Prosecutor opposed the application. 4. Even though anticipatory bail cannot be granted in a case of this nature, I am inclined to give the petitioners an opportunity to surrender before the Investigating Officer for interrogation and then to have their regular bail application disposed of. Accordingly, the BA 7522/06 -: 2 :- petitioners shall surrender before the Investigating Officer any day between 22.12.2006 and 27.12.2006 for the purpose of custodial interrogation. The petitioners shall thereafter be produced on the same day before the Magistrate having jurisdiction, who shall consider and dispose of the application for regular bail, if any, filed by the petitioners, preferably on the same day on which it is filed. With this direction, this petition is disposed of. V.Ramkumar, Judge. ess 21/12
