Court held bail order only prima facie view, not final decision. Strictly construed money laundering offence ingredients per Supreme Court precedent.

Frequent fund rotations disproportionate to business, PMLA statement authenticity to be examined at trial. Investigation completed, complaint filed, no material to cancel bail. Bail granted on relevant considerations. Petition dismissed.
