The HC dismissed the petitioner's application for bail under Section 439 CrPC in a PMLA prosecution, finding that the petitioner failed to rebut the prima facie case and did not satisfy the statutory twin conditions of Section 45 PMLA; Section 24's presumption that proceeds of crime are involved remained unrebutted.
