Versus The State of Maharashtra ..Respondent. None for the petitioner. Ms.S.V. Gajare, APP for the State. CORAM : A.M. Khanwilkar, & U.D. Salvi, JJ. DATE : 31st August 2010. P.C. : 1. Heard learned APP. Perused the petition filed through jail. We have gone through the relevant documents including letter issued under the signature of DIG (Prisons), Western Division dated 29th January 2010 and the order passed by the competent authority rejecting the application for furlough. In our opinion, the ground on which furlough leave has been rejected cannot be said to be extraneous or irrelevant. It is noticed that while in jail, the petitioner absconded and before he was rearrested, he committed two other offenses. It is further seen that the petitioner has already been convicted for one of such offense. 2 crwp1625-10 2. Taking overall view of the matter, therefore, the authorities have rejected the furlough leave application filed by the petitioner. We see no reason to depart from the said opinion. Considering the fact situation of this case, the present petition is dismissed. 3. Copy of this order be forwarded to the petitioner, who is in jail forthwith. (U.D. Salvi, J.) (A.M. Khanwilkar, J.)
