The case of the prosecution is that the petitioners were found in illegal transportation of two units of sand by using Lorry without valid licence. Hence, the complaint. The learned counsel appearing for the petitioners would submit that the petitioners are innocent persons and have been falsely implicated in this case. Hence, he prays to grant anticipatory bail to the petitioners.
