Swapnil Ramdasji Tarhekar vs State of Maharashtra through PSO Parseoni — 12/2026

Summary The court allowed the application for custody of the seized Tata Tipper vehicle and directed the police station to release it to the owner, Swapnil, upon execution of a Rs. 10 lakh indemnity bond. The court found the applicant established ownership through valid documents and rejected the prosecution's objections, holding that prolonged detention of the vehicle at the police station serves no purpose and causes deterioration. The release is without prejudice to revenue and mining authorities' powers to proceed under relevant laws. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
