DINESH Vs. ASSISTANT DIRECTOR, GEOLOGY AND MINES DEPARTMENT

JUDGEMENT

(1.) Heard the learned counsel on either side.

(2.) The petition mentioned vehicle was seized in connection with the alleged illegal transportation of sand.

(3.) The learned Government Advocate states that even though the criminal case has been registered, the vehicle in question is yet to be produced before the jurisdictional Court. The case is still under investigation. I am of the view that so long as the vehicle has not been produced before the Jurisdictional Court, the Writ Court will always have the power to direct for the release of the vehicle.
