"In the accident case, the Court ordered the release of the vehicle seized yesterday, and that order was sent to the concerned police station. The court issued the order based on which the vehicle was released. The Court's order required sureties, including personal bonds and a bond which required a surety equal to the vehicle's value," he said while speaking to ANI. He added that the court's directive required sureties, including personal bonds and a bond equal to the value of the vehicle. "In compliance with that order, the bond amount of Rs 8.5 crore was paid, and thus the vehicle was released...
