Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, submissions made by learned counsel for the parties, the evidence on record, taking into consideration the delay in the institution of the FIR and the role of the applicants, and without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, prima facie, the Court is of the view that the applicants have made out a case for bail.
