The occurrence took place on 4.11.2006 at 11 AM, during which time the petitioner/accused who was carrying the de facto complainant in an autorickshaw had taken a diversion of the autorickshaw to a lonely place from where he had allegedly attempted to commit rape on her. 2. Anticipatory bail cannot be granted in a case of this nature. There is no reason why the petitioner should not seek regular bail after surrendering before the Magistrate concerned. Accordingly, if the petitioner surrenders before the Magistrate concerned and files an application for regular bail, within two weeks from today, the same shall be considered and disposed of, preferably on the same date on which it is filed. With this observation, this petition is dismissed. V.RAMKUMAR, JUDGE dsn
