5. Considering the fact that the petitioners have swindled amount to the tune of about Rs.89 Lakhs from the bank and much of the money is yet to be recovered and that A-1 has already been arrested and remanded to judicial custody and also taking note of the fact that custodial interrogation of the petitioner is necessary for recovering the swindled money and taking into consideration the fact that investigation is still going on, enlarging the petitioners on anticipatory bail at this point of time, when the offence is serious in nature and there is likelihood of the petitioners indulging in activities which would be prejudicial for investigation, this Court is not inclined to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners.

6.Accordingly, this Criminal Original Petition is dismissed. -sd/- 29/04/2021 This order, on being produced, be punctually observed and carried into execution by all concerned TRUE COPY Sub-Assistant Registrar (Statistics/C.S.) High Court, Madras - 600 104.
