Seeking grant of Anticipatory Bail - allegation of Receipt of Monthly Bribe - Tax officers - The complicity of the petitioners herein as alleged would be revealed and fortified only with further investigation, for which as a necessary corollary custodial interrogation of the petitioners would be required - In the case in hand, there has to be a deviation from normal rule of bail rather than jail, since the allegations and prima facie investigation revealed that there was evasion of tax at a very large-scale and officials were being paid bribes on a monthly basis. The investigation is at a very nascent stage regarding the role of the petitioners herein. The petitioners are also persons of influence and would be in a position to scuttle a proper investigation. - Bail cannot be granted - HC
