The respondent\u2019s contention with regard to the lower courts and revisional courts having no jurisdiction to hand over custody of the vehicle used in the offence as per the provisions of Section 451 of the Code of Criminal Procedure 1973, was rejected by the Court.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Court held that this instant case was covered by the judgment delivered in <em>Hardikbhai Mukeshbhai\u00a0<\/em><em>Chauhan v.
