Rajkumar vs Ervadi ps — 223/2026

SUMMARY: The Judicial Magistrate granted interim custody of a seized TVS Scooty scooter to petitioner Rajkumar, who established ownership through registration documents. The court found that keeping the vehicle in police custody served no purpose, as no confiscation order had been issued despite the Prohibition Enforcement Wing having custody, and idle storage would deteriorate the vehicle's condition. The petitioner was granted interim custody subject to executing a ₹50,000 bond with sureties, producing photographs, surrendering the RC book, maintaining monthly court appearances, and complying with future confiscation proceedings.
