JUDGEMENT

(1.) The present petition has been filed seeking issuance of directions to the trial court to release the petitioner on bail since similar relief has already been granted by this court to the co-accused.

Moreover, he wants to withdraw the present petition with liberty to surrender and to file petition for bail under Sec. 439 Cr.P.C. before the concerned Chief Judicial Magistrate/Judicial Magistrate.

(3.) Given the fair stand of the petitioner, the present petition is disposed of as having been withdrawn with a request to concerned Chief Judicial Magistrate/Judicial Magistrate that in the event of surrender of the petitioner and on filing of application for bail under Sec. 439 Cr.P.C., the same should be decided within three days from the date of its filing. State to also keep their instructions ready in that eventuality.
