ORDER : The Car Owner/A1 aggrieved by the dismissal of his property return petition in Cr. M.P. No. 1450 of 2015, by the learned Special Judge under E.C. & N.D.P.S. Act, Pudukkottai, has directed this revision. 2. In connection with Crime No.8 of 2015, Devipattinam Police seized a Lancer Car (TN33 AB6162). The Car has been produced with Form-95 to the Court. It has become a case-property. The revision petitioner filed Crl.M.P.No.1450 of 2015 for interim custody of the same to him. It was opposed to by the learned Special Public Prosecutor that investigation is pending, if the Car is given, again it will be used for committing similar offence. 3. The learned Special Judge passed one line order, which runs as under: “Considering the contentions raised by the Special Public Prosecutor, this petition is dismissed.” 4. This is not a proper way of disposal of an application by a judicial order. Judicial orders must be passed in accordance with law. Disposal of a property return petition solely based on the contentions of the learned Special Public Prosecutor is not accordance with law. What the learned Judge has to do is that he must go through the averments in the petition, counter, if any filed by the prosecution, consider the arguments of both sides, peruse the materials on record, apply his mind and also law on the point including relevant case-law and then pass orders. This will be according to law. Thus, the order passed by the learned Special Judge is not in accordance with law. So, we will pass orders according to law. 5. The petitioner is A1 in this case. He is the Car Owner. In Sunderbhai Ambalal Desai vs. State of Gujarat [2003 (1) CTC 175(SC)], the Hon'ble Apex Court held that the material objects like vehicle have to be preserved, if they were exposed to open sky, kept idle, they will become useless. Car Owner may be a third party. Sometime, he may be accused himself. With suitable directions, return of the property can be considered. In passing the impugned order, the learned Special Judge has failed to apply the principle laid down in Sunderbhai Ambalal Desai (supra). Thus, our interference is called for. 6. Ordered as under: i. This revision is allowed. ii. Sometime, he may be accused himself. With suitable directions, return of the property can be considered.
