Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court granted leave and ordered the release of a vehicle to the registered owner under specific conditions, including executing a bond of Rs. 1,00,000 with sureties, proving ownership, and restrictions on use and transfer of the vehicle until the prosecution case is resolved. The court emphasized the need for practical management of the vehicle rather than indefinite custody. The appeal was disposed of with these directives.
