Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that petitioners have been falsely implicated in the instant case by the informant. It is next submitted that petitioners are not named in the FIR and they are not the employee of sub-post office rather their name transpired in the confessional statement of Sitaram Prasad. It is further submitted that Sitaram Prasad was taken in custody and he has deposited the entire amount which is alleged to have been fraudulently withdrawn, it is thus submitted that had the petitioners been involved in the case in that event Sitaram Prasad would not have deposited the entire amount. It is also submitted that petitioners will not abscond rather will cooperate in the investigation to prove their innocence.

Learned A.P.P. for the State opposes the prayer for anticipatory bail of the petitioners.
