B.A.No.7595 of 2006
========================
Dated this the 1st day of January, 2007.
ORDER
Petitioner, who is the accused in Crime No.400 of 2006 of
Parippally Police Station originally registered for offences punishable
under Sections 341, 323, 379 and 427 I.P.C. and subsequently
confined to the above offences excluding for the offence punishable
under Section 379 I.P.C., seeks anticipatory bail.
2. In as much as Section 379 I.P.C. which was the only non-
bailable offence was subsequently deleted, the surviving offences are
bailable offences. If so, invocation of Section 438 of Cr.P.C. is
misconceived. Accordingly without prejudice to the right of the
petitioner to seek regular bail from the Magistrate concerned, this
petition is disposed of.
V.Ramkumar,
Judge.
