[1] DBCWP 2340/2009 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE FOR RAJASTHAN AT JAIPUR BENCH, JAIPUR O R D E R D.B. CIVIL WRIT PETITION (PAROLE) NO. 2340/2009 KALA @ RAJAVEER Vs. STATE OF RAJASTHAN & ORS. Date: 23.03.2009 HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE K.S. RATHORE HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE SATYA PRAKASH PATHAK Mr. S.P. Poshwal, Advocate for the petitioner. Ms. Alka Bhatnagar, Addl. Govt. Counsel for State. **** The convict has sought first parole for a period of 20 days. His representation to grant parole has been declined by the Parole Committee vide order dated 31.01.2009. Reply to the petition has been filed. Superintendent, Central Jail, Bharatpur has recommended the matter for grant of parole to the convict, whereas the Superintendent of Police, Bharatpur and Social Welfare Department while not recommending the matter for grant of parole, expressed their apprehension that the convict may abscond after grant of parole because his nephew has abducted a girl of the complainant side in the case. There does not appear any convincing reason or material on the file to decline parole to the convict, particularly when the conduct of the petitioner has been found satisfactory by the jail authority. In the absence of any material placed on record, mere apprehension is not sufficient to decline parole. [2] DBCWP 2340/2009 Accordingly, the petition is allowed and it is hereby ordered that convict Kala @ Rajaveer S/o Atra @ Atar Singh shall be released on first parole for a period of 20 days on the usual terms and conditions as determined by the Superintendent, Central Jail, Bharatpur. He shall also fix a date for the surrender of petitioner before the jail authorities. (SATYA PRAKASH PATHAK),J. (K.S. RATHORE),J. /KKC/
