SBCWP NO.10227/07. 1 S.B. CIVIL WRIT PETITION (PAROLE) NO.10227/2007. Suresh Vs. District Magistrate Ajmer & Ors. Date of order :- 29/1/2008. HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE M.N. BHANDARI By Post. Shri Ankur Rastogi, Government Counsel for State. **** This petition has been received by post sent by the petitioner. By way of this letter petition, petitioner is seeking benefit of first parole as he has already undergone 1/4th of the sentence awarded to him i.e. 6 years, 1 month & 14 days as on 18/12/2007 out of total period of sentence of 10 years hence, he is entitled to be released on first parole for 20 days as per Rule 9 of the Rules of 1958. But, the District Parole Advisory Committee vide its order dated 19/6/2007 has rejected the case of the petitioner of first parole. Learned Government Counsel has vehemently opposed the release of the petitioner on first parole on the ground of adverse report being given by the District Advisory Parole Committee dated 19/6/2007. Admittedly, petitioner has served 6 years, 1 month & 14 days imprisonment out of total period of sentence of 10 years and thus eligible for consideration of first parole as per Rules of 1958. Apart from above, learned Government Counsel could not point out anything adverse in the reply against the petitioner on the basis of which the Committee denied him the benefit of first parole. SBCWP NO.10227/07. 2 Considering all the aspects, I am of the opinion that denial of the benefit of first parole on the insufficient ground is not justified. In the result, this petition is allowed. Superintendent Central Jail, Ajmer is accordingly directed to release petitioner Suresh Meena S/o Chandra Ji Meena on parole for a period of 20 days from the date of receipt of certified copy of this order as his first regular parole under Rule 9 of the Rules of 1958 provided, petitioner furnishes a personal bond in the sum of Rs.20,000/- with two sureties in the sum of Rs.10,000/- each to the satisfaction of the Superintendent Central Jail, Ajmer himself. Petitioner is directed to appear before the concerned S.H.O. Police Station as would be directed by the Superintendent Central Jail, Ajmer himself after every seven days during this period of 20 days parole. In case, petitioner fails to do so, his parole shall automatically cancelled and he shall be arrested and brought book to the jail. The petitioner is further directed to keep peace and maintain good behaviour during the period of parole and report back to the Superintendent Central Jail, Ajmer immediately on the expiry of 20th day from the date of his release.
