Having heard learned counsel for the parties and considering that the investigation has already culminated in filing of the charge-sheet, the applicant was not arrested during the course of investigation, and custodial interrogation is no longer required, this Court is of the opinion that no further orders are required to be passed on the present anticipatory bail application. The applicant shall be at liberty to appear before the Court concerned and move an application seeking regular bail. In the event such an application is filed, the Court concerned shall consider and decide the same expeditiously, strictly in accordance with law, on its own merits, and without insisting upon the applicant’s surrender in the first instance, keeping in view the fact that the applicant was not arrested during the course of investigation. 5. With the aforesaid observations and directions, the present anticipatory bail application stands disposed of.
