"If the application is allowed there are strong chances of tampering and hampering the investigation as the accused are influential people.

After hearing the defence and prosecution, the judge said that applicants had been granted anticipatory bail on the condition that they would not to leave the country.
However, when the investigation officer did not object to the application, the court granted permission to the duo to go ahead with their travel abroad.

The court also told them to submit self attested copies of visa to the police station concerned and said that they will have to give an undertaking that they shall not stay in the UK and USA beyond July 21.
After their arrival they should intimate the police station as well as the court. The court pointed out that this compliance shall be done without fail or their permit will be cancelled.
