required to appear before the learned Trial Court at the time of
filing of the charge-sheet.
Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that they do not
want to press the present petitions and are ready to appear before
the learned trial Court for filing of the charge-sheet however, they
may not be put in judicial custody and be released on furnishing
their bail bonds and surety bonds.
This Court finds that since the investigation from the
petitioners is complete, their custodial interrogation is no more
required by the investigating agency and there is no need of
putting the petitioners behind the bars.
Accordingly, the present criminal misc. petitions are disposed
of with the direction to the petitioners that they shall appear
before the learned trial Court on the date informed by the
investigating agency and submit their bail bonds and surety bonds
to the satisfaction of the trial Court. Learned trial Court shall
accept the bail bonds and surety bonds of the petitioners for
securing their presence during trial. The petitioners shall be bound
by all the conditions laid down by the learned trial Court.
However, if the petitioners do not appear, the learned trial
Court may proceed further in accordance with law and take
coercive steps.
All pending application(s), if any, also stand disposed of.
