an application for remand if he considers it proper and
just and the learned Magistrate would decide the same
on merits;
7. Despite this order, it would be open for the Investigating Agency
to apply to the competent Magistrate, for Police remand of the
applicants. The applicants shall remain present before the learned
Magistrate on the first date of hearing of such application and on
all subsequent occasions, as may be directed by the learned
Magistrate. This would be sufficient to treat the accused in the
judicial custody for the purpose of entertaining application of the
prosecution for police remand. This is, however, without prejudice
to the right of the accused to seek stay against an order of remand,
if, ultimately, granted, and the power of the learned Magistrate to
consider such a request in accordance with law. It is clarified that
the applicants, even if, remanded to the Police custody, upon
completion of such period of Police remand, shall be set free
immediately, subject to other conditions of this anticipatory bail
order.
8. At the trial, the Trial Court shall not be influenced by the prima-
facie observations made by this Court while enlarging the
applicants on bail. Rule is made absolute. Direct service is
permitted.
