    SUMMARY: The Judicial Magistrate of Gingee allowed the petition and granted interim custody of a Honda Dio vehicle (Registration No. TN-16-Y-5488) to its registered owner, Balaji, pending case disposal. Relying on the Supreme Court judgment in Sunderbhai Ambala Desai v. State of Gujarat, the court held that prolonged police custody of seized vehicles reduces their utility and ordered return subject to conditions including a Rs.50,000 bond, production of original RC book, photographs, and an undertaking not to alienate the vehicle without court permission.
