It is seen that in identical circumstances on an earlier occasion when its goods were detained, the petitioner had approached this court and the writ petition was disposed of by Ext.P5 judgment. Since the issue raised in this case is identical, there is no reason to adopt a different course in this case. 2. Accordingly, this writ petition is disposed of directing that the goods detained as per Ext.P4 be released to the petitioner on execution of a simple bond without sureties for the security amount. Along with that, the petitioner shall also produce a certified copy of the certificate of registration before the respondent. Thereafter adjudication shall be completed as expeditiously as possible. ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE Issue copy today itself. mt/-
