RAMKUMAR, J. = = = = = = = = = = = = = Crl.R.P.No.3660 of 2009 = = = = = = = = = = = = = = Dated this the 20 th day of January, 2010 ORDER Petitioner, a lady, who claims to be the registered owner of a Maruthi Omni Van bearing Registration No.KL-7/-6510 challenges the order dated 21.10.2009 passed by the Sessions Judge, Ernakulam in Crl.M.P.No.3065 of 2009 as per which her claim for interim custody of the vehicle under Section 457 Cr.P.C. was rejected. 2. Admittedly the 1.864 Kgs of ganja was seized from the above vehicle and the Perumbavoor police have registered a crime as Crime No.1720 of 2009 against one Salam for an offence punishable under Sections 20(b)(ii) B of the Narcotice Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act. It is too early to hold that the petitioner was not a privy to the offence or that the accused Salam was on a frolic of his own. I am not inclined to interfere with the order passed by the Sessions Judge dismissing the application. This Crl.R.P. is, accordingly, dismissed. Dated this the 20th day of January, 2010. V. RAMKUMAR, JUDGE sj
