Bail Application No.216 of 2011
----------------------------------------------
Dated this the 18th day of January, 2011
ORDER
The petitioner, who is accused No.5 in Crime No.47 of
2006 of Kannapuram Police Station, Kannur, seeks
anticipatory bail.
2. Consequent on the non-appearance of the
petitioner in S.C.No.410 of 2007 on the file of the Sessions
Court, Thalassery, non-bailable warrants of arrest are
pending against the petitioner. Anticipatory bail cannot be
granted to nullify the process issued by a court of
competent jurisdiction. There is no reason why the
petitioner should not surrender before the Sessions Judge
and seek regular bail. Accordingly, if the petitioner
surrenders before the Sessions Judge and files an
application for regular bail within two weeks from today,
the same shall be considered and disposed of preferably on
the same day on which it is filed notwithstanding the
B.A.No.216/2011
2
pendency of non-bailable warrants of arrest against the
petitioner and also after considering the explanation
offered by the petitioner for his previous non-
appearance.
With the above observation this application is
disposed of.
V.RAMKUMAR, JUDGE.
