The applicants established a prima facie case and risk of loss, but the balance of convenience favours the 3rd respondent, as cessation of bank account operations would cause irreparable harm to the company. Therefore, instead of a full cessation, the court ordered that all withdrawals and transfers from the 3rd respondent's bank accounts must be endorsed by the 1st applicant for the duration of the main suit.
