inquiry; bond of accused.
Any judge having power to issue warrants in criminal cases, to whom it
shall be made to appear by affidavit or complaint that there is reasonable
ground to believe that any offense specified in
K.S.A. 21-1801 is about to
be committed within the jurisdiction of such judge, or by any person or
persons being within such jurisdiction, shall issue a warrant to the
sheriff, marshal or other proper officer for the arrest of the person or
persons about to commit such offense. Upon any person or persons being
arrested and brought before such judge by virtue of such warrant, such
judge shall inquire into the matter, and if it appears that there is
reasonable ground to believe that the person or persons so arrested are
about to commit any offense defined in

persons so arrested shall be required to give a bond to the state of Kansas
in a sum not less than five hundred dollars ($500) nor more than one
thousand dollars ($1,000), with good and sufficient surety, conditioned
that the person or persons so arrested will not, for one (1) year
thereafter, commit any such offense.
