Car still in Police possession - help!

I'm not sure where to post this, so am posting it here.  To anyone with a similar experience or lawyers willing to share some free advice - I hope you can contribute & a big big thank you in advance.

My situation is a bit unique, a few years ago my car was wrongfully sold by a used car dealer who did not settle the outstanding loan with the bank (my mistake for handing over the car before full settlement).  The car was sold for cash to a buyer, and of course the car dealer went bankrupt and dissapeared.  I managed to locate the buyer (don't ask how), and after a lot of threats, blackisting attempts with JPJ etc. the police finally decided to yank the car away from the buyer and it is now in the police pound.  The cops told me they have checked with the bank etc and it is clear that the car is mine as it is still in my name & I am still servicing the loan.  According to cops, they have to get a court order - via an appearance by me before the magistrate - before the car can be handed back.  But its been a few months, and the Investigating Officer (IO) keeps telling me he still hasn't got a court date yet as the courts keep asking him to supply more proof of ownership etc.  This is what the IO claims.  I have helped the IO by getting everything requested from the banks etc to prove...beyond any doubt...that the car is mine and still under HP with the bank (who also supplied their own evidence directly to the IO).  But its been 5-6 mths and the IO stilll claims there is no date given.  Can it be this long?  Could the buyer be queitly using his own resources to complicate the matter thereby holding things up (the IO claims there is no action or contact from the buyer so far).  My question is whether there is any way I can speed this up...should I engage a lawyer to expedite this with the magistrate, or take my case to MCA complaints?  Thank you.

The buyer is an innocent party, so why are you trying your best to hurt him?
