Seizure of passport by the Police

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 20 May 2011 This query is : Resolved 
What is a citizen's right, when the police seizes the passport of a citizen upon court's order, issues a receipt for the same, but never deposits the passport to the said court and then loses the passport of that citizen, and then agrees to release a letter to the citizen that they have messed up.

In the meanwhile the passport is expired by over 4 years.

Will the regional passport authority accept the police letter and agree to renew the passport or there will be further complications in this issue.

A detailed expert advice will be appreciated at the earliest.

Thanks in advance for all expert advice.

Best regards,

The aggrieved party

If the passport office is not accepting the letter of the police, you can go for a writ petition for direction on the passport department.
