JUDGMENT
The petitioner in Ext.P2 order, the defacto
complainant in a crime registered on the
allegation of theft of gold ornaments came up
aggrieved by the non-release of gold ingots for
interim custody under Section 451 Cr.P.C.. The
alleged incident took place in the year 2002. The
impugned order was passed in the year 2008. It is
submitted that now the case is in LP list and
there is no probability or possibility to
apprehend the absconding accused in the near
future. Hence, it requires a fresh consideration
by the learned Magistrate. For that purpose,
Ext.P2 order is hereby set aside. The petitioner
shall appear before the learned Magistrate on
05/04/2021 and thereon the learned Magistrate
shall hear both the parties and dispose of the
application taking into account all relevant
aspects including the pendency of the case in LP
list. It shall be done within a period of three
weeks from the date of appearance of the parties.
O.P.(Crl.) is allowed in part accordingly.
