3. Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the impugned FIR has been lodged on false/vexatious/mischievous allegations and no offences are made out against the petitioners. 4.

Ltd. vs. State of Maharashtra, AIR 2021 SC 1918 and in Special Leave to Appeal (Crl.) No.3262/2021 (Leelavati Devi @ Leelawati & another vs. the State of Uttar Pradesh) decided on 07.10.2021 and the latest judgment in Criminal Appeal No. 843 of 2024 arising out of Special Leave Petition (Crl.) No. 10913 of 2023 (Directorate of Enforcement vs. Niraj Tyagi & ors.), no case has been made out for interference with the impugned first information report. 6. The writ petition is disimissed leaving it open for the petitioners to apply before the competent court for bail/ anticipatory bail in accordance with law. 7.
It is made clear that we have not adjudicated the contentions raised by learned counsel for the petitioners and the same are left open for the petitioners to raise at an appropriate stage in an appropriate proceeding, in accordance with law.
