Court Decision Summary The Principal Sessions Judge of Pudukkottai allowed the criminal revision petition and granted interim custody of the seized Bharat Benz vehicle to its owner, Karthick, overturning the lower court's dismissal. The court found that the petitioner's ownership was established through RC Book documentation and that the police had not initiated confiscation proceedings, making the petition maintainable. The vehicle's release was conditional on a personal bond of Rs. 2,00,000, surrender of the RC book to the court, photographs of the vehicle, and an affidavit ensuring the petitioner would not use it for similar offences or alter/sell it pending case disposal.
