The vehicle and the goods was intercepted by the second respondent. He moved an application under Sections 451 and 452 Cr.P.C. before the Judicial First Class Magistrate Court, Kolencherry seeking release of the vehicle. The trial court on a consideration of the matter held that no materials are produced to show the valid permit and therefore, the vehicle cannot be released to its owner. 2. I find that no purpose will be served by keeping the vehicle in police station till the matter is decided by the learned Magistrate. Therefore, I order release of the vehicle on condition that the petitioner offering security by way of unencumbered immovable property worth the value of the vehicle. The probable value of the vehicle shall be estimated by the Motor Vehicles Inspector, Ernakulam. The petition filed CRL.R.P.1552/08 2 under Sections 451 and 452 Cr.P.C. is allowed. The Cr.R.P. is disposed of as above. HARUN-UL-RASHID, JUDGE csl
