Considering that the name of the petitioners has come in cyber-crime and from the house of the petitioner in ABA No.4535 of 2026 two mobiles have been seized and that was not in the name of the said petitioner, however, the said mobile was used in the cyber- crime. In paragraph Nos.10 and 11 of the case diary, it has come that the petitioners by showing themselves as bank officials used to take the OTP and make the cyber crime and other co-accused persons have been granted regular bail. 8. In the attending facts and circumstances of this case, I am not inclined to grant privilege of anticipatory bail to the petitioners, hence, the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioners is hereby rejected.
