    Case Summary The court granted interim custody of two seized vehicles to applicant Rustum Balaji Gharjale, relying on the Supreme Court's Sunderbhai Desai guidelines that vehicles should not deteriorate at police stations. While acknowledging prosecution concerns about misuse for Essential Commodities Act violations, the court found stringent conditions—including a ₹10,55,000 indemnity bond, prohibition on altering vehicle identity, and mandatory production on demand—adequately safeguard state interests while preventing irreparable financial loss to the registered owner.
