The court dismissed the application because s.80(3) must be read with s.80(4) and the Magistrate has no power to order release under s.80(3) prior to the conclusion of the prosecution; prosecution in this matter was commenced within one month of seizure, so retention of the vehicle was lawful and release could not be ordered at this stage.
