SOCHAN SAO Vs. TATE OF JHARKHAND

JUDGEMENT

(1.) HEARD the counsel for the parties.

(2.) THIS revision application has been filed by the petitioner order dated 30.1.2006 passed by the learned JM, First Class, Hazaribagh, whereby prayer for release of the dumper bearing registration No. BR 13B 9171 seized in Mandu PS Case No. 111 of 2004, was rejected.

(3.) LEANED counsel submits that the court below erred in refusing the prayer of the petitioner without considering the fact that though the petitioner is not registered owner of the vehicle, but the person in whose name the vehicle was registered had also appeared before the court below and filed an affidavit explaining that he had sold the vehicle to the petitioner on hire purchase and delivered the possession of the vehicle to the petitioner for commercial use and therefore he has no objection if the vehicle is released in favour of the petitioner.
