Section 3(1)(r), 3 (1)(s) SC/ST Amended Ordinance Act, 2014 in Crime No.41 of 2015, on the file of the respondent police, moved this petition seeking a direction to the III Additional District and Sessions Court (PCR Cases) Madurai, to accept the surrender of the petitioner and consider the bail application on the same day on merits.
2. I have heard the learned counsel appearing on either side and perused the records.
3. The learned Government Advocate (Criminal side) strongly opposed the relief sought for by the petitioner. 4.A cursory look at the offences would reveal that some of the offences are grave in nature, including the one registered under the Special Enactment. Therefore, it is for the Trial Court to consider as to whether initial detention of the petitioner is absolute and warranted on his surrender before it or not. https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/
