4. Learned senior counsel for the petitioner submits that petitioner is quite innocent and has committed no offence. She further submits that from bare perusal of the complaint petition, it appears that alleged loan was sanctioned on 21.07.2009, whereas petitioner jointed Shriram Transport Finance Co.

Petitioner claims clean antecedent.
