    Case Summary: WP 13337/2025 - Sri. Suman N P v. State of Karnataka The High Court of Karnataka allowed the writ petition and ordered release of a seized Maxi Cab Urbana vehicle to petitioner Suman N P on conditional basis. The petitioner, accused in a fraud case involving fake property sale documents, had sought vehicle release after lower courts rejected his application under CrPC Sections 451-457. Justice M. Nagaprasanna, relying on Supreme Court precedent (*Perichi Gounder v. Tamil Nadu*), held that prolonged seizure damages vehicles and serves no one's interest, directing release subject to indemnity bond, surety, non-transfer undertaking, and vehicle production when required.
