The HC granted anticipatory bail to the petitioners, chartered accountants and statutory auditors, holding there is no prima facie evidence of a criminal conspiracy or receipt of undue favours that would justify custodial interrogation; discrepancies, at most, indicate dereliction of professional duty not warranting pre-trial detention. The court observed no disproportionate remuneration or motive linking auditors to loan procurement or siphoning, noted investigatory failures to recover alleged proceeds, and applied parity with co-accused already granted bail.
