Court No. - 46 Case :- CRIMINAL MISC. WRIT PETITION No. - 17486 of 2023 Petitioner :- Suresh Kumar Respondent :- State Of U.P. And 2 Others Counsel for Petitioner :- Narendra Deo Shukla,Vivek Shukla Counsel for Respondent :- G.A. Hon'ble Ashwani Kumar Mishra,J. Hon'ble Syed Aftab Husain Rizvi,J. Petitioner has been implicated in case crime no.178 of 2023, under section 3/5A/8 of U.P. Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act, 1960. It is asserted that the petitioner had already been bailed out in the aforesaid case. Thereafter, an application for release of the vehicle has been moved which is pending consideration before the concerned District Magistrate i.e. respondent no.2. The grievance is that despite lapse of sufficient time, no decision has been taken in the matter. Learned AGA states that in the event a decision has not been taken, so far, the petitioner's application for release of the vehicle shall be dealt with, expeditiously, in accordance with law. In view of the fact, we dispose of this writ petition with a direction upon the second respondent to accord consideration the petitioner's application and pass appropriate orders within a period of four weeks.
