Judgment
26/08/2021
Heard. Perused the material available on record.
The petitioner has filed the instant writ petition seeking to
assail the order dated 03.05.2021 passed by the District Parole
Advisory Committee, Kota whereby the application for first parole
filed on behalf of convict prisoner Tejmal has been rejected.
The Committee rejected the application of the convict-
petitioner on the ground that as per the report of the District
Superintendent of Police, Kota (Rural), if the convict is released on
parole, there will be adverse effect on the society. The possibility
(2 of 2) [CRLW-1302/2021]
of breach of peace and unrest, in case of release of the petitioner
on parole were also mentioned as the grounds to deny parole to
the convict petitioner.
We find that the reasons assigned in the order dated
03.05.2021 for denying parole to the petitioner are absolutely
mechanical, vague and extraneous and are not based on
justifiable grounds so as to deny parole to the convict petitioner.
We further feel that the apprehension regarding breach of peace
and unrest can very well be taken care of by requiring the convict
to submit sound and solvent sureties and imposing appropriate
conditions.
In this background, we are inclined to accept the
instant writ petition which is hereby allowed. It is ordered
that the convict Tejmal S/o Shri Mangi Lal shall be released on
first parole of twenty days upon his furnishing personal bond in
the sum of Rs.1,00,000/- with two sound and solvent sureties of
Rs.50,000/- each to the satisfaction of Superintendent Central Jail,
Kota on the usual terms and conditions. The Superintendent,
Central Jail, Kota 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.
