JUDEGEMENT

Case Summary: CRMA/179/2026 The court allowed the applicant Rathod Bachubhai Bhagvanbhai's petition for interim custody of a seized Bajaj auto-rickshaw (Registration No. GJ-38-WA-3706), finding him to be the registered owner who did not participate in the offense. The court reasoned that the vehicle's prolonged storage in police custody causes deterioration and loss to national assets, and since the actual accused—not the owner—used it in the crime, custody could be granted with safeguards. The vehicle was released subject to conditions including a personal bond of 1.5 times the vehicle's value, prohibition on illegal use or transfer, and production on demand. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
