IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CRIMINAL APPELLATE JURISDICTION CRIMINAL WRIT PETITION NO. 76 OF 2009 Rashid Ahmed Abdul M. Ansari ...Petitioner Vs. The State of Maharashtra ...Respondent Mrs. P.H.Kantharia, APP for State. CORAM : BILAL NAZKI & A.R.JOSHI, JJ DATED : 12th FEBRUARY, 2009. P.C. The Petitioner is a under trial prisoner and wants that he should be allowed to have home food in jail and his visitors should be allowed to give him besides food, dry­fruits, fruits, bakery items, sharbat, dates, medicated nutrient diet, protein­x, chawanprash, toiletries and wearing apparels. The learned Public Prosecutor submits that allowing the prisoners to get these items on their own would be a security risk. On the other hand, most of these items are available in the jail canteen and can be purchased by the under trial prisoner. ­2­ Considering, the contention of the learned Public Prosecutor, we direct that only wearing apparels be allowed to be given to the Petitioner by the visitors, as we understand that the under trial prisoners are not supposed to wear any jail uniform. With these directions, the Petition is disposed of. (A. R. JOSHI, J.) (BILAL NAZKI, J.)
