Moreover, he submits that there are no direct allegations against the petitioners in the case record. He further submits that the petitioners are cooperating with the investigation and remain ready and willing to extend their cooperation to the I.O. in the further course of the investigation, if their interim pre-arrest bail is made absolute. 5.
