S.I.of Police, Kuruvikulam P.S. vs Ayyadurai S/o. Velkonar — 298/2026

Case Summary The Additional District Judge (Sankarankovil) ordered the release of ₹5,200 seized by police in a theft case (Sections 305, 331(4) BNS) to the petitioner on an interim basis. The court found that denying the petitioner access to the recovered money would cause him hardship, and accepted the government's position that there was no objection to releasing the funds conditionally. The petitioner was required to furnish a personal bond for ₹5,200, provide an ID photograph with the bond, prepare a panchnama (inventory document), and ensure the money's presence during all court proceedings before final disposal of the case.
