GOVT.PLEADER SRI.P.N.SANTHOSH THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 27/10/2010,THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: ANTONY DOMINIC, J. ================ W.P.(C) NO. 32661 OF 2010 (G) ===================== Dated this the 27th day of October, 2010 J U D G M E N T Petitioner's grievance is against Ext.P1 to the extent bank guarantee is insisted for interim custody of the vehicle bearing Regn.No.KL7 Q-6633. The contention raised by the petitioner is that the insistence of bank guarantee is illegal and that the solvency offered by the petitioner ought to have been accepted. 2. In my view, a detailed consideration of this issue is unnecessary, for the reason that, a Full Bench of this Court in Shan C.T. v. State of Kerala [2010(3)KHC 333], has already executed the types of security which are to be accepted by the authorities under the Kerala Protection of River Banks and Regulation of Removal of Sand Act, 2001. Therefore directing that in lieu of the bank guarantee, if the petitioner furnishes other security which are indicated in the aforesaid judgment of this Court to the satisfaction of the authority, the same will be accepted by the 2nd respondent, the writ petition is disposed of. ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE Rp
