                           J U D G M E N T

Ext. P6 notice detaining goods is under challenge. It is a fact

that the petitioner who is the consignor and the additional 5th

respondent, a consignee are not registered dealers. They have not

furnished the security demanded also. If that be so, release of the

goods pending adjudication may not be proper.

2. In view of this, I direct that the adjudication following Ext.

P6 shall be completed by the competent officer of the department

as expeditiously as possible, at any rate within 3 weeks of

production of a copy of this judgment.
