THE HON'BLE MS JUSTICE G.ROHINI WRIT PETITION No. 15653 of 2010 Date: 05.07.2010 Between: Vikas High School rep. by its Headmaster, Sri K.Hari Babu ..... PETITIONER AND The Deputy Transport Commissioner, Khammam and 2 others .....RESPONDENTS The Court made the following:- THE HON'BLE MS JUSTICE G.ROHINI WRIT PETITION No. 15653 of 2010 O R D E R : Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Government Pleader for Transport appearing for the respondents. This writ petition is filed seeking a declaration that the action of the respondents in detaining the school bus bearing No. AP 16 TU 2223 under vehicle check report dated 16.06.2010 is arbitrary and illegal. The check report dated 16.06.2010 shows that the said vehicle was seized on various allegations. Since the enquiry is required to be conducted by the competent authority following due process of law, it is not necessary for this Court to express any opinion as to the correctness of the said allegations. However, pending such enquiry, I deem it appropriate to direct the respondents to release the vehicle in question subject to the condition that the petitioner deposits a sum of Rs.20,000/- apart from paying the taxes if any due. The petitioner shall also furnish an undertaking that he will not alienate and incorporate any third party interest over the vehicle in question till final orders are passed. It is also made clear that the amount deposited in pursuance of this order shall be subject to the outcome of the enquiry. Accordingly, the Writ Petition is disposed of leaving it open to the respondents to proceed with the enquiry in accordance with law. No costs. ​ ___________ Date: 05.07.2010 G. ROHINI, J Ivd
