STATE OF M.P. vs SURESH KUMAR

The Supreme Court upheld the Madhya Pradesh High Court's dismissal of the State's writ petition challenging the confiscation of a truck under Section 15(4)(6) of the Madhya Pradesh Van Upaj (Vyapar Viniyamar) Amendment Act, 1986. The Court found that the High Court correctly affirmed the Sessions Judge's ruling, which had set aside the confiscation orders due to procedural breaches under Section 15(5) and (6). The Court emphasized the importance of following due process in confiscation proceedings, thereby affirming the lower court's decision.
