RAMKUMAR, J. ............................................................................ Bail Application No. 4381 of 2010 ............................................................................ DATED: 06 .08.2010 O R D E R Petitioner who is the accused in Crime No. 385 of Vellarada Police Station for offences punishable under Sections 143, 147, 148, 149, 341, 323, 324, 308 and 379 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 18-08-2010 or 19-08- 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. Sd/-V.RAMKUMAR, JUDGE /true copy/ P.S. to Judge -:2:-
