B.A.No. 7561 OF 2006
-----------------------------------------------------------
DATED THIS THE 21ST DAY OF DECEMBER, 2006
O R D E R
Petitioner seeks anticipatory bail on the ground that
non-bailable warrant of arrest has been issued against him by the
J.F.C.M.-I, Kannur in C.C.No.440/05 which is pending before that court
for an offence punishable under section 420 read with section 34 IPC.
The case originated from Crime No.521/05 of Kannur Town Police
Station.
2. In as much as non-bailable warrants of arrest are pending
against the petitioner, anticipatory bail cannot be granted so as to
nullify the process issued by a court of competent jurisdiction. There
is no reason why the petitioner should not surrender before the
Magistrate and seek regular bail. Accordingly, if the petitioner
surrenders before the Magistrate 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 after
considering the grievance of the petitioner that he did not receive
summons in the case.
With this direction, this petition is disposed of.
V.RAMKUMAR, JUDGE
