Court made the followin;
ORDER
Petitioner has filed this petition against the order dated 90
March 2010 in Crime No.232/2008 pending on the file of IV
Addl.C.M.M., Bangalore.
2. Petitioner and accused in Crime No.232/2008 filed two
separate applications under Sections 451 and 457 of Cr.P.C. for
release of the vehicle seized in’ the crime, Trial court by order
dated 7.10.2008 rejected the application filed by the petitioner
and allowed the application filed by the accused. Being aggrieved
by the said order, petitioner filed a revision petition before the
Fast Track Court-ll, Bangalore in Criminal Revision Petition
No.29/'2009. The said revision petition was disposed of by order
dated 1.2.2010 wherein the Fast Track Court observed that the
aceused, who had filed an application for release of the vehicle,
after the order, he had not sought for release of the vehicle and
the vehicle has been kept idle, It is also observed that, if the
vehicle is lying idle and if the conditions imposed by the learnedMagistrate for release of the vehicle are not complied by the
accused. there is no impediment for the petitioner to make an
application of subsequent development. It is on the basis of the
said observati before ine
n, petitioner filed another applicati
Magistrate. Learned Magistrate rejected the sa
application on the ground that, it is hit by Section 362 of Cr.P.C
as the Mag
istrate has no power to review his own 014
3. There is no doubt as far as prevision of Section 362 of
Cr.P.C. is concerned that. ence tne order is passed, the court has
no power to alter or amend the judgment, however. the vehicle,
which is ordered to be relezsed in
ayour of the accused, has not
got released by the acerised and admittedly that order is not
complied, It is &
subsequent application, which is filed for
release of the vehicle on ihe basis of the subsequent
development, not on the basis of the application earlier filed. The
tn
court should have considered the application as fresh
application based on fresh ground, not on the ground for which
the order was carlicr passed. Hence, | find that in view of the
accused not getting the vehicle released, the application of the
nes be considered on its merit. S yt
petitiAccordingly, the Revision Petition stands disposed of.
