THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE M.SATYANARAYANA MURTHY CRIMINAL PETITION No.1111 of 2017 ORDER:

This criminal petition, under Section 438 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 (for short 'Cr.P.C.'), is filed to grant prearrest bail to the petitioners/A.1 and A.2 apprehending their arrest in connection with Cr.No.108 of 2015 of Inkollu Police Station, Prakasam District, registered for the offence punishable under Section 326 read with 34 of Indian Penal Code, 1860 (for short 'I.P.C.').

After arguing the matter for a while, learned counsel for the petitioners, seeks a direction from this Court to permit the petitioners to surrender before the Judicial Magistrate of First Class, Parchur, Ongole District, and to move an application under Section 439 of Cr.P.C. to grant bail and also seeks a direction to the Magistrate to consider their application on the same day.

Acceding to the request of learned counsel for the petitioners, without going into the merits of the case, I deem it appropriate to permit the petitioners to surrender before the Judicial Magistrate of First Class, Parchur, Ongole District, and to move an application for grant of bail, after due service of notice to the Public Prosecutor. In which event, the learned Magistrate is directed to decide the same on the same day in accordance with law.

With the above observation, the Criminal Petition is disposed of.
