SUBHASH CHANDRA Vs. STATE OF U P

JUDGEMENT

(1.) PALOK Basu, J. This revision has been filed by Subhas Chandra against the order dated 28-9-1989 passed by the IVth Additional Sessions Judge, Azamgarh, allowing the revision and setting aside the order dated 16-8-1989 passed by the IVth Additional Munsif-Magistrate, Azamgarh, under Section 451, Cr. P. C. releasing Jeep No. MAP 1321 in favour of the applicant.

(2.) JEEP No. MAP 1321 has been held to be having new No. UMD 3858 and was directed to be released in favour of Subhas Chandra applicant on certain terms and conditions by the order of the Magistrate dated 16-8-1989. However, Suryanath Yadav felt aggrieved and filed a revision before the Sessions Judge which came to be finally decided by the IV Additional Sessions Judge, Azamgarh, on 28-9-1989 whereby he has set aside the order of the Magistrate dated 16-8-1989 allowing the application of Suryanath Yadav on fresh terms and conditions.

(3.) WHEN the charge sheet has already been filed on the prima facie proof of the allegations of the informant to be true, there might not have been enough justification for the Sessions Judge to direct the release of the vehicle in favour of the accused. Moreover, the discretion which was exercised by the Magistrate initially was neither illegal nor erroneous. The court below shall hold the trial expeditiously where after the custody of the vehicle shall abide by the final orders of the trial court.
