BREEZ THIS BAIL APPLICATION HAVING BEEN FINALLY HEARD ON 23/03/2011, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY PASSED THE FOLLOWING: V. RAMKUMAR, J. ................................... B.A. No.2354 of 2011 .................................. Dated: 23-03-2011 O R D E R In this Petition filed under Sec. 438 Cr.P.C. the petitioners who are accused Nos. 4 and 6 in Crime No. 292 of 2006 of Karnagappally Police Station for offences punishable under Sections 64 A and 8(1) and (2) f the Abakri Act, seek anticipatory bail. 2. The learned Public Prosecutor, on instructions, submitted that after the conclusion of investigation a final report has already been filed before the trial Court. If so, it is not desirable to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners since they cannot be directed to appear before the Investigating Officer after the conclusion of investigation and after the matter is in the seizin of the Court . The appropriate order in such circumstances can only be one to direct the petitioners to surrender before the trial Court and seek regular bail. Accordingly, the petitioners are directed to surrender before the trial Court and apply for Bail A.No. 2354 of 2011 -:2:- regular bail within two weeks from today. In case the petitioners comply with the above direction, the trial Court shall consider and dispose of the application for bail on merits preferably on the same date on which it is filed, notwithstanding the non-bailable warrants, if any, pending against the petitioners. This application is disposed of as above. Dated, this the 23rd day of March, 2011. V.RAMKUMAR, JUDGE. ani/
