Applicants are arrayed as accused in C.R.No.78 of 2003 registered with Tasgaon police station. It appears that one Mr.Dinesh Madhavrao was arrayed as accused, although it was his 2 grievance that he set the criminal law in motion. Goods were kept in cold storage and the employees of the cold storage prepared bogus documents and obtained loans from various banks. Thereafter, these goods were disposed of and that is how the owners of goods as well as bank has been cheated. 2.
