M.Sasidharan Nambiar, J. -------------------------- Crl.M.C.No.912 of 2010 -------------------------- ORDER Petitioner is the accused in C.P.No.119/2009 on the file of Judicial First Class Magistrate's Court-I, Punalur. This petition is filed for a direction to the Magistrate to consider the application for bail to be moved by the petitioner on the date of surrender. 2. When an accused surrenders and files an application for bail, Magistrate is expected to pass orders on the application without delay. I find no reason to believe that Magistrate is unaware of the provisions of law or the decisions of this Court or the Apex Court or that Magistrate will not act in accordance with law. Hence, no direction is warranted. Petition is disposed. 16th March, 2010 (M.Sasidharan Nambiar, Judge) tkv
