Subsequently, the vehicle was granted on supurdnama to the petitioner by the Chief Judicial Magistrate, Korba vide order dated 28/07/2024. Against the said order dated 28/07/2024, the prosecution filed revision before the Sessions Judge, Korba which was allowed and the vehicle of the petitioner was again seized on 17/12/2024. Thereafter, the petitioner herein filed an application before the Court of Collector, Korba, seeking release of the seized vehicle. The said application was dismissed by the Court on 06.03.2025. Thereafter, the petitioner/revisionist filed a revision against the order dated 06.03.2025, which was admitted by the learned Additional Sessions Judge, F.T.S.C. (POCSO), Korba on 03.07.2025, and the trial Court, Collector, Korba was directed to consider the petitioner’s application for release of the vehicle on supurdnama in accordance with the rules, 3 and if deemed fit, to pass an order releasing the vehicle to the revisionist/applicant, who is authorized to take custody of the vehicle, subject to appropriate conditions. Pursuant to that the petitioner appeared before the Court of Collector, Korba, and filed an application for release of the vehicle. The Court, on 21.08.2025, admitted the application subject to the conditions as follows:- “1. आवेदक / सुपुद द र जप्तशुद स्वेर ज मा जद सुपुर-4 वे हन ्ቅमा क CG-10 B.G. 8056 क सुपुद न मा मा ቚኋ प्त करन हत अधिरपिपुत र शिशु 2,50,000/- रूपुये ( शुब्द! मा- द ला ख पुचा सु हज र रूपुये मा ्ቔ) क& एफ.डी*. त+ये र कर न्ये ये लाये क सुमा्ቌ पुशु कर। 2. आवेदक / सुपुद द र क पिनद/शिशुत पिकये ज त ह+ पिक वे हन क सुपुद न मा पुर ቚኋ प्त करन पुቐኋ त 01 सुप्त ह क भी*तर वे हन क पिवेधिवेत बी*मा दस्त वेज क& ቚኋपित एवे रजिजस्቏ኔशुन ቚኋमा ण पु्ቔ एवे वे हन क& फटो सुबीधित था न मा पुशु कर। 3. ቚኋकरण क पिनर करण मा जप्तशुद वे हन येदिद र जसु त क& ज त* ह+, त उसु ቝኌ;पित मा आवेदक ቛኋ र जमा क& गई एफ.डी*. क& जमा र शिशु क र जसु त पिकये ज वेग । 4. येदिद वे हन पिकसु* अन्ये अपुर  मा सुशिलाप्तत पु ई ज त* ह+, त जमा एफ.डी*. क& र शिशु क भी* र जसु त क& ज सुक ग*। 5. आवेदक / सुपुद द र ቚኋकरण मा पिनर करण तक उक्त वे हन क पिकसु* भी* तर*क सु ्ቤपुन / हस्त तरण नहA करग । 6. वे हन क माBला, स्वेरूपु मा पुरिरवेत न नहA करग । 7. न्ये ये लाये ቛኋ र पिवेचा रण क दDर न आदशिशुत पिकये ज न पुर वे हन क अपिवेलाबी न्ये ये लाये क सुमा्ቌ अपुन ्ቤये पुर पुशु करग ।.” 3. Being aggrieved by the order dated 21.08.2025, the 4 Petitioner filed revision i.e. CRR No.38/2025 before the learned Additional Sessions Judge, FTC (POCSO) Korba, District-Korba (C.G.) and vide order dated 07.11.2025, the learned Judge has dismissed the revision against which the present petition has been filed. 4. Learned counsel appearing for the Petitioner submits that the impugned order passed by both the Courts is a cryptic order as no proper reasons have been assigned for imposing the condition of depositing Rs.2,50,000/- in FD as security of the vehicle. He further submits that the petitioner is a poor person, who runs his family by driving the seized vehicle. Hence, it is prayed that the instant petition may be allowed, the orders dated 07.11.2025 and 21.08.2025 may be set aside and a smaller amount may be imposed for releasing of the seized vehicle in Supurdnama. 5. On the other hand learned Counsel appearing for the State opposes the argument advanced by learned Counsel for the Petitioner. 6. I have heard learned Counsel appearing for the Petitioner and perused the documents available on record. 7. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case also considering that the Petitioner is a poor person who runs his family by driving the vehicle, it is directed that in order dated 21.08.2025 passed by learned District Magistrate 5 Korba (C.G.) in case No.202411050400038/B-121/2024- 25, condition No. ‘3’ be omitted and condition No. ‘1’ be substituted as follows:- “1. The petitioner/custodian is directed to prepare a Fixed Deposit (FD) of 1,00,000/- (One Lakh Only) and submit it ₹ to the court in order to receive the seized Swaraj Mazda Super-4 vehicle bearing registration number CG-10 B.G. 8056 on a custody bond. 8. The rest of the conditions in order 21.08.2025 passed by learned District Magistrate Korba (C.G.) Case No.202411050400038/B-121/2024-25 shall remain intact. 9. In addition to the above modified conditions, it is also directed that the petitioner shall furnish Rs.7,00,000/- with one surety as Supurdnama in the concerned Court for releasing the vehicle in his favour as an interim custody keeping in view that there must not be any alteration in the physical appearance of the said article. It is also pertinent that the said vehicle shall be submitted by the Applicant itself on its own cost, if need so arises. 10. Accordingly, the instant petition is allowed to the extent indicated above. Sd/- (Sanjay Kumar Jaiswal) Judge Shubham
