Bail Application No.4068 of 2010
=====================
DATED: 5th day of August, 2010
O R D E R
Petitioner, who is the sole accused in Crime No.911/2009 of
Kottayam West Police Station for an offence punishable under
Sec. 376 IPC, seeks anticipatory bail.
2. The learned Public Prosecutor opposed the application.
3. Anticipatory bail cannot be granted in a case of this
nature. But at the same time, I am inclined to permit the
petitioner to surrender before the Investigating Officer for the
purpose of interrogation and then to have his application for bail
considered by the Magistrate having jurisdiction. Accordingly,
the petitioner shall surrender before the investigating officer on
16.8.10 or on 17.8.10 for the purpose of interrogation and
recovery of incriminating material, if any. The petitioner shall
thereafter appear before the Magistrate who on being satisfied
that the petitioner has been interrogated by the Police, shall
consider and dispose of his application for regular bail preferably
on the same date on which it is filed.
This petition is disposed of as above.
V.RAMKUMAR, JUDGE
