Seggam Sanjeeva v. The State Of Telangana,

THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL REVISION CASE No.1784 OF 2016 ORDER:

The petitioner has preferred the present criminal revision case by invoking the provisions under Sections 397 and 401 of Code of Criminal Procedure (Cr.P.C.,) being aggrieved by the order, dated 13.06.2016, passed in C.F.R.No.1519 of 2016 by the Court of the Additional Judicial First Class Magistrate, at Mahabubabad, whereby the learned Magistrate returned the petition filed by the petitioner for release of vehicle for want of jurisdiction. Heard and perused the material available on record. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the Court below erroneously returned the petition filed by him for release of the vehicle. Hence, he prays this Court to release the vehicle.

Learned Additional Public Prosecutor opposed for the same. Considering the facts and circumstances, it is directed that the vehicle i.e., DCM Van bearing No.AP 12 V 0754 shall be released to the petitioner for interim custody, subject to final orders to be passed in the main case, on his executing a personal bond for a sum of Rs.75,000/- (Rupees seventy five thousand only) with one surety for a like sum to the satisfaction of the learned Magistrate concerned, and subject to production of all the documents relating to the vehicle in question. The petitioner shall also give an undertaking not to sell, alter or alienate the said vehicle and produce the same as and when directed by the trial Court. However, this Order does not preclude the authorities concerned from proceeding with the confiscation proceedings.

With the above directions, the Criminal Revision Case is disposed of. Consequently, the miscellaneous petitions filed in this revision, if any, shall stand closed.
