    Summary The Sessions Court in Morbi, Gujarat, allowed a criminal revision petition filed by Mutvaa Junas Umedalli, a livestock farmer, ordering the return of 21 seized animals (19 goats and 2 sheep) to the appellant. The court found that the appellant was the legitimate owner with proper documentation, and that prolonged detention of live animals in custody causes them unnecessary harm and financial loss; following established Supreme Court precedent, the court directed return of the animals subject to the appellant depositing security and paying shelter maintenance fees, while rejecting the police's argument that seizure was necessary for investigation.
