Even though the contention raised by the counsel for the petitioner is that none of his objections were considered, the petitioner did not produce a copy of the objections filed before the first respondent. 2. In view of this, I am not in a position to ascertain what objections were raised by the petitioner. Therefore, I cannot accept the contention now raised against Ext.P2 order and the prayer to release the vehicle involved. 3. Value and fine imposed are only Rs.25,000/- each. The amount fixed also cannot be said to be irrational for any reason. The writ petition fails and is dismissed. ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE csl
