Shuddhodhan Mukinda Mate vs State of Maharashtra Thr Police Station, Sewagram Advocate - Assistant Public Prosecutor — 5/2026

The court allowed the applicant's petition and ordered release of his seized Suzuki Access 125 moped upon execution of an ₹80,000 bond, finding no evidence the vehicle was used for drug trafficking despite the applicant's involvement in an NDPS case. The court reasoned that prolonged police custody would cause deterioration and serve no purpose after investigation completion, relying on Supreme Court precedent that seized vehicles should be released with appropriate bonds rather than kept indefinitely at police stations.
