HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE R.SUBHASH REDDY WRIT PETITION NO : 1082 of 2008 Dated 28th Januajry, 2008 Between K.Narsayya …Petitioner and The Sub-Inspector of Police, Thandur Mandal, RR District …Respondent. THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE R.SUBHASH REDDY WRIT PETITION NO : 1082 of 2008 ORDER: Heard the learned Counsel for the petitioner and the learned Government Pleader appearing for the respondent. The petitioner claims to be the owner of the Tractor and Trailer bearing Registration Nos. AP.28X.9858 and AP.28X.9906 respectively. The said vehicle was seized by the respondent on 13-1- 2008 on the allegation that it had undertaken illegal transportation of sand, and, to that effect, a case in Crime No.10 of 2008 was registered for the alleged offence under Section 379 IPC. It is submitted that the petitioner had purchased the said vehicle by taking financial assistance from a private financial agency, namely, LT Finance Limited, and, though the said vehicle was seized on 13-1-2008, the same has not been produced before the concerned Magistrate so far, so as to move the said authority for release of the vehicle. When the matter has come up on 25-1-2008, the same was adjourned to enable the learned Government Pleader to obtain instructions. To day, on instructions, it is submitted by the learned Government Pleader that the said vehicle has not been produced before the concerned Magistrate so far. There appears no reason at all for detaining the said vehicle for such a long time from the date of seizure till the date, without producing before the concerned Magistrate. In that view of the matter, there shall be a direction to the respondent to release the Tractor and Trailer bearing Registration Nos. AP.28X. 9858 and AP.28X.9906 respectively to the petitioner forthwith, subject to condition of the petitioner furnishing an undertaking that he will not alienate, transfer, encumber or create any third party interest over the vehicle in question till the final report is filed pursuant to registration of Crime No. 10/2008 on the file of respondent-Police Station. Subject to the above direction, the Writ Petition is disposed of at the admission stage. No order as to costs. ---------------------------------- JUSTICE R. SUBHASH REDDY DATE: 28-1-2008. Msnr.
