Unfortunately not enough identifying features in the photo to give a specific ID.
What is the background to the photos? Did the person who caught them not provide an ID?

I do have other photos. Is there anything specific that you need to give a better ID?
This bat had landed in a shallow bowl and it couldn't actually take off flying from this position. It was taken outside.
The person who caught them has absolutely no taxonomic qualifications whatsoever so no ID from them.
