been deceived and it is not the case that applicant has collected money and not deposited the amount in the company but the company itself has defrauded the depositors. He submits that the charge sheet has been filed and statements have been recorded, therefore the applicant may be released on bail.

Perused the reply and the documents. Prima facie it appears that applicant was working as an agent and he was not involved in any policy decision of the company.
