- IN THE HIGH COURT OF DELHI AT NEW DELHI
- W.P.(CRL) 1130/2018 & Crl. M.A. No. 12549/2018
SUNIL ..... Petitioner Through: Mr. P. K. Saxena, Advocate (DHCLSC) Versus STATE ..... Respondent Through: Mr. Jamal Akhtar, Advocate for State with SI Ramavtar, P.S. Nabi Karim. CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE NAJMI WAZIRI O R D E R % 02.08.2018
The petitioner seeks parole for a period of three months to re-stablish the social ties with family members as well as to get his two minor children admitted to a good school as well as to arrange finances for their education and if it is not so done, the children would suffer irreparably and would face a bleak future. The petitioner’s application for parole was declined by the Competent Authority on the ground that his conduct in prison was not found to be good in view of the punishments having been given to him on 20.05.2016 as he jumped parole on 02.12.2015 and was re-arrested on 20.05.2016.
Be that as it may, for the purpose of grant of parole, this Court would see his conduct for the past one year, which according to the Nominal Roll is stated to be satisfactory. The reasons for parole are substantive. The Status Report filed by the State, in compliance of the previous order, shows that the
address of the petitioner’s sister, who would stand surety for him, has been verified.
In view of the foregoing, the Court finds no impediment in allowing the present petition. Consequently, the petitioner is enlarged on parole for a period of two months from the date of his release on his furnishing a personal bond in the sum of Rs.15,000/- with one surety of the like amount to the satisfaction of the Jail Superintendent concerned, subject to the following conditions:-
