CASE HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 15/10/2008, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY PASSED THE FOLLOWING: R.BASANT, J. ---------------------- Crl.M.C.No.3833 of 2008 ---------------------------------------- Dated this the 15th day of October 2008 O R D E R The petitioners, who face indictment in a prosecution for offences punishable inter alia under Section 452 read with 149 I.P.C; whose application for bail has already been dismissed as withdrawn by another Bench of this court and who apprehends arrest as accused in the said crime have come to this court with the prayer that directions under Section 482 Cr.P.C may be issued to the learned Magistrate to comply with the directions in Alice George vs.Deputy Superintendent of Police [2003(1) KLT 339] and to consider their application for bail to be filed by them when they surrender before the learned Magistrate on merits, in accordance with law and expeditiously. 2. Sufficient general directions have already been issued in Alice George (Supra). It is not necessary for this court in every subsequent case to issue directions to the Magistracy to follow the dictum in Alice George (Supra). Every court is bound to do the same. I have no reason to assume that the same shall not be done. If the directions are not complied Crl.M.C.No.3832/08 2 with the avenues of challenge/complaint are available for the petitioner. 3. In the result, this petition is dismissed subject to the above specific observations. Hand over copy of this order to the learned counsel for the petitioners for production before the learned Magistrate. (R.BASANT, JUDGE) jsr Crl.M.C.No.3832/08 3 Crl.M.C.No.3832/08 4 R.BASANT, J.
