2. Succinctly the prosecution story as per F.I.R.

Learned counsel for the petitioners contends that the petitioners are innocent in this case; that earlier on the complaint of petitioner No,2 was lodged with Police Station Defence Area on 10-4- 2006 against the complainant of the instant F.I.R. Resultantly as counterblast the present F.I.R. Was lodged against the said petitioner and his brother, who are Directors of the parent company. The premises are being used by the complainant as well as by the petitioners and question of trespassing and entering the same does not arise.
4. Conversely, learned counsel for the complainant assisted by the learned counsel for the State has opposed the grant of bail. They contend that the petitioners are specifically nominated in the F.I.R. And stolen articles are yet to be recovered from them. There is no mala fide and malice on the part of the police or the complainant to falsely involve them in the case and that no extraordinary circumstances exist in favour of the petitioners for confirmation of their pre-arrest bait.
5. Heard. Record perused.
6. The petitioners were nominated in this case and stolen articles are yet to be recovered from them during investigation. No ill-will, mala fide and malice on the part of the police or the complainant have been found on the record. Specific role had been assigned. As per the investigation of A.S.P./S.P.O. The petitioners were found guilty while entering illegally in the office of the complainant and by causing harassment to the staff had stolen the record of the complainant company. The petitioners have failed to point out any material or mala fide against the police to falsely involve them in the case. In such-like cases the petitioners are not entitled to concession of bail.
