    Case Summary: 52/2026 Abhishek Mukesh Lohar v. The State of Gujarat Petitioner Abhishek Mukesh Lohar sought revision of the trial court's order denying return of his seized Maruti Suzuki vehicle (Registration: RJ-30 CB-7865) under Section 438 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita. The vehicle was seized during a prohibition law enforcement operation at Bodkdev Police Station based on allegations under the Gujarat Prohibition Act 1949, Section 98(2), after allegedly finding 20+ liters of liquor inside. The revision court dismissed the petition, upholding the trial court's order. The court held that under Section 98(2) of the Prohibition Act 1949, no court has authority to release seized contraband materials pending trial proceedings, notwithstanding the petitioner's ownership claim and argument that the vehicle was not used for illegal purposes.
