SASIDHARAN NAMBIAR, J. ------------------------------------- Crl. M.C No. 2261 of 2009 ------------------------------------ Dated this the 13th day of July, 2009 O R D E R The petitioner is the accused in S.T. No.945/2008 on the file of the Judicial First Class Magistrate Court, Ottapalam, in which a non bailable warrant is pending against the petitioner. This petition is filed for a direction to the Magistrate to consider the application on the date of surrender. 2. When in a case where non bailable warrant is pending, that accused surrenders and files an application, the Magistrate is expected to pass orders without delay. When the offence is bailable offence, it cannot be believed that the Magistrate will not grant bail. I find no reason to believe that Magistrate is unaware of the provisions of law or that Magistrate will not act in accordance with law. In such circumstances, no direction is warranted. The petition is dismissed. M. SASIDHARAN NAMBIAR JUDGE scm
