Avinash Vitthal Khot vs Government Through Murud Police Station — 14/2026

Case Summary: Criminal M.A. No. 14/2026 The court allowed Avinash Vitthal Khot's application for interim custody of his TATA 1612 Tanker seized in criminal case C.R. No. 7/2026 by Murud Police Station. The court found that since the FIR was filed two months prior (13.01.2026), investigation was substantially complete and the vehicle's prolonged detention would cause unnecessary depreciation and harm to the applicant's livelihood. The court granted release on executing a surety bond of Rs. 25 lakhs with strict conditions: the applicant must not transfer, modify, or misuse the vehicle, must maintain its identifiable condition, and must produce it upon court order until trial completion.
