This petition has been filed by the petitioner seeking a direction to the respondents to consider her representation dated 08.6.2020 and extend the ordinary leave to her husband Mr.Janardhanan, S/o.Ananda Pothy, aged 61 years, convict prisoner for a period of 30 days from 14.6.2020 to 13.7.2020.

It is seen from the material papers placed before this Court that orders have been passed successively by the Hon’ble Division Benches of this Court and for nearly seven months, the petitioner’s husband is on parole. The health condition of the petitioner’s husband is not in dispute. He suffered a paralytic stroke and he is virtually bed ridden and his wife is taking care of him.

¶21

Accordingly, the above criminal miscellaneous petition is disposed of by extending the ordinary leave already granted to the petitioner’s husband Mr.Janardhanan, S/o Ananda Pothy till 13.7.2020 by making it clear that he shall surrender before the Prison Authorities on 13.7.2020 at 5 PM.
