4. The learned counsel for the petitioners submits that allegations about cyber crimes have been made in the FIR dated 30.07.2026 however, the petitioner(s) herein are not one of the ten named accused persons and they were arrested during investigation soon after the FIR. It is also contended that the petitioners(s) are not involved in the alleged offences and that they have also been prosecuted due to some political rivalries. 5. The order submitted with reference to the said list that all the articles that were seized by the police from the petitioners are legitimate articles belonging to the petitioner's like cell phone, bank passbook, check book, Aadhar card, etc. 6. The learned Additional Public Prosecutor opposes the bail and submits that investigation has revealed the involvement of a wide racket, in the nature of organized crime committing cyber offenses pertaining to various customers of banks, etc.
It has also been revealed that several Customer Service Points (CSP) of Banks and financial institutions have been misused in commission of the alleged offences. It is submitted that a large quantity of incriminating materials in the nature of scanners, large number of debit cards of various banks, passbooks, POS machines, QR scanners etc. 7. The case diary as called for has been received and perusal of the same reveals sufficient incriminating materials against the petitioners. Page No.# 4/4
8. Considering the above and the gravity of the offense which is severely affecting unsuspecting citizens, it would not be proper to release the petitioners on bail at this stage. 9. Consequently, the prayer for bail stands rejected. JUDGE Comparing Assistant
