counsel therefore submits that the impugned order dated
18.03.2025 whereby the prayer for release of vehicle in favour of
the petitioner was refused, deserves to be set aside.

behalf of the petitioner for release of the vehicle.
4. Relying upon the judgment of the Hon'ble Supreme Court in the
case of Sunderbhai Ambalal Desai Vs. State of Gujarat
reported in 2002 (10) SCC 283, the present petition is allowed
and the learned trial Court is directed to release the vehicle SUV

owner of the vehicle in question before releasing the same.
