In view of the aforesaid submissions and for the reasons alike as were mentioned in the earlier orders of this Court in the afore-stated writ petition, this writ petition is disposed of directing the petitioner to make an application before the 2nd respondent for release of the vehicle bearing No.AR 01G-2740; and, on such application being made by the petitioner, the

2nd respondent shall consider the same and pass appropriate orders in accordance with law, as expeditiously as possible, and preferably within three days from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. Office is directed to enclose a copy of the order dated 14.11.2017 passed in W.P.No.38180 of 2017 to this order. There shall be no order as to costs.

Pending miscellaneous petitions, if any, shall stand closed. --------------------------------------------- M.SEETHARAMA MURTI,J DATE:30-11-2017 Note:
