ORDER
The petitioner is the 4th accused in Crime No.614 of 2013 of Aranmula Police Station, which is now pending as C.P.No.11 of 2015 on the file of the Judicial First Class Magistrate Court-I, Pathanamthitta. The offence alleged against the petitioner is punishable under Section 8(1) and (2) of the Abkari Act. The grievance of the petitioner is that, the Magistrate Court has already issued non-bailable warrant against him and if he surrenders before the Magistrate Court there is every likelihood of the application not being considered on the very same day. Therefore, the petitioner seeks a direction to consider his bail application on the day of surrender itself.
2.
Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Public Prosecutor.
3.
Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, this Crl.M.C. is disposed of directing the petitioner to surrender before the Magistrate Court within a period of two weeks from today and
Crl.M.C.No.2628 of 2015 the Magistrate Court is further directed to consider his bail application on the day of surrender itself, strictly in accordance with law. The non-bailable warrant already issued against the petitioner shall be kept in abeyance for a period of two weeks. The Crl.M.C. is disposed of as above.
ANIL K.NARENDRAN, JUDGE skj
