Rajender @ Kallu v. State Gnct of Delhi
Case brief
What is this about?
Rajender @ Kallu v. State GNCT of Delhi, W.P.(CRL) 717/2026, High Court of Delhi at New Delhi, decided 10.04.2026 by Saurabh Banerjee, J. — Convict's parole petition dismissed; long incarceration noted but parole refused as petitioner convicted for major punishment and two fresh FIRs registered against him twice during earlier parole releases, making him a possible threat to society; Competent Authority's order dated 16.02.2026 refusing parole left undisturbed. No statutes or precedents cited; no monetary reliefs.
What did the court decide?
Notwithstanding the long incarceration undergone by the petitioner, parole is refused: the petitioner has been convicted for major punishment and his Nominal Roll reflects that two fresh FIRs were registered against him twice when he was earlier released on parole; since he may be a threat to society, there is no ground to grant him parole for maintaining social relations with his family and/or the community to fulfil his familial social obligations and responsibilities.
