DATE : 19th December, 2006. P.C. P.C. P.C. 1. Heard. By this Writ Petitioner, the petitioner challenges the order passed by the Magistrate refusing to return the pistol to the petitioner pending trial. That order was concurred by the Sessions Court by rejecting the Revision filed by the petitioner. Against that order, the petitioner has filed this Writ Petition. 2. The learned Additional Sessions Judge has given reasons that though the petitioner is holding a valid licence, it is from Punjab and the same has not been registered with the authorities in Mumbai. Moreover, prima facie, from the factions mentioned inh the FIR, it appears that the petitioner had used the pistol for the purpose of threatening. 3. Under the circumstances, the order passed byt he learned Additional Sessions Judge refusing to return the pistol to the petitioner is just and it needs no interference. I do not find any merit in the Writ Petition. The Writ Petition therefore stands dismissed. --- (S.K.SHAH,J.) (S.K.SHAH,J.) (S.K.SHAH,J.)
