    Judegement

    Case Summary: Criminal Revision Application No. 10/2026 Court Decision: The Sessions Judge at Porbandar allowed petitioner Vivek Devjibhai Jungi's revision application and ordered return of his seized Volkswagen Vento car (Reg. GJ.JE.01.KS.P660) upon furnishing appropriate security bonds. The trial court's order rejecting the vehicle custody plea was set aside as unlawful and arbitrary. Key Reasoning: The court applied Gujarat Prohibition Act Section 98(2), which permits vehicle seizure only when recovered liquor quantity exceeds 20 liters. Here, only 9 liters of foreign whisky was seized from the petitioner's vehicle. Since the seizure fell below the statutory threshold and the petitioner is the registered owner, the court held he was entitled to interim custody during trial proceedings, subject to reasonable conditions preventing misuse or evidence tampering. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
