An interim Order was passed directing release of the vehicle on furnishing security, but the vehicle has not been released so far. In the meantime a report suggesting that the sand in question was not river sand, has been made by the Geologist and on that basis this review has been filed. 2. It being only an interlocutory order, I do not think that a review as such is necessary and therefore the review petition is closed. ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE mt/- WP(C) 2
