The Uttarakhand High Court allowed Zoya Khan's writ petition seeking release of her seized Scooty (UK04 AN 9810), holding that prolonged police detention of vehicles serves no purpose and causes depreciation. The court directed immediate release subject to furnishing bonds, sureties, and undertakings to produce the vehicle during investigation/trial and not transfer it without court permission, clarifying the release does not prejudice the underlying narcotic offense trial. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
