Judgment
16/08/2021
The instant writ petition has been preferred by the convict
petitioner Sunil Kumar Jatav S/o Shri Ghashi Ram Jatav for
assailing the recommendations dated 12.05.2021 whereby, the
application for first parole of seven days preferred on behalf of the
petitioner under Rajasthan Prisoners Release on Parole Rules,
1958, has been dismissed by the learned District Magistrate,
Bikaner.
We have heard and considered the submissions advanced by
learned counsel for the petitioner and have gone through the
adverse recommendations and reply of the respondents. The
convict petitioner has suffered imprisonment of more than 12 and
(2 of 2) [CRLW-983/2021]
a half years till date. As per the reply of the respondents, the
accused petitioner absconded from the Open Air Camp, Beechwal
in the year 2011 and was rearrested on 16.08.2017 and since
then, he has in custody. His application for seven days parole
under Rajasthan Prisoners Release on Parole Rules, 1958 has been
dismissed on the ground that the petitioner has been convicted for
a serious offence and his release on parole may be prejudicial to
the convict himself. Be that as it may. As per the verification
report received from the Dy. Commissioner of Police North Delhi,
the family members of the convict are permanent residents of
Totawali Gali, Eidgah Road, Sadar Police Station, New Delhi.
In this background, we feel inclined to grant one more
opportunity to the appellant to reform himself and to reintegrate
in society while granting him parole of seven days under
Rajasthan Prisoners Release on Parole Rules, 1958.
Accordingly, the writ petition is allowed. It is hereby directed
that the petitioner Sunil Kumar Jatav S/o Shri Ghashi Ram Jatav
shall be released on parole of seven days upon his furnishing a
personal bond in the sum of Rs.2,00,000/- and two sound and
solvent and duly verified sureties of Rs.1,00,000/- each to the
satisfaction of the Superintendent Central Jail, Bikaner on usual
terms and conditions. The Superintendent, Central Jail, Bikaner
shall be at liberty to impose other adequate and reasonable
conditions to ensure return of the convict to the custody after
availing the parole. The term of parole shall be computed from the
date of his actual release.
