Having heard Sri.T.A.Unnikrishnan, the learned counsel for the petitioner and Smt.S.Rekha, the learned Senior Public Prosecutor, I am inclined to dispose of this Crl.M.C. as follows:

(i) The petitioner shall surrender before the learned Special Judge within a week from today.

(ii) The bail application, if any, filed by the petitioner shall be disposed of by the learned Special Judge on the same day itself, after hearing both sides, taking into consideration of the fact that the petitioner is a lady aged 64 years.
