It considered the bona fide allegations, a stalled investigation and the seriousness of the charges leveled in cancelling anticipatory bail. The judges pointed out the peculiarity that upon grant of bail to the Appellants, it was not the State rather a complainant on whose application the High Court had first interfered.</strong></td> </tr> <tr> <td align="left" valign="top" ><strong>Relevant : State of A.P. v.
