The materials which have been enclosed to the writ petition do not prima-facie goes to show that the petitioner have been able to make out a case for a direction for issuance of a writ upon the respondent authorities, more particularly, respondent Nos. 4 and 5 for releasing the amount as claimed by the petitioner.
