Learned Special P.P. at the outset submits that the case was filed in the month of July, 2025 and the charge sheet in the case was submitted by the police after investigation in April, 2025 as would manifest from Para-60 of the case diary but the said fact has not been pleaded in the anticipatory bail application. 4. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the appellants is not in a position to rebut the said submission made by the learned Special P.P. since appellants have not approached the court with clean hands, as such, the Court is not inclined to entertain the appeal. 5. Accordingly, the appeal is rejected. amit/- (Satyavrat Verma, J) U T
