1 3145.10.sxw IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CRIMINAL APPELLATE JURISDICTION CRIMINAL WRIT PETITION NO.3145 OF 2010 Subhash Chandrabhan Vayase ...Petitioner Versus The Superintendent, Yerwada Central Prison, Pune. ...Respondent ...... None for Petitioner. Dr.F.R.Shaikh, A.P.P. for Respondent. ...... CORAM:- A.M.KHANWILKAR AND A.P.BHANGALE, JJ. DATED:- NOVEMBER 19, 2010. P.C. 1. This Petition is filed through jail. The grievance in the communication received through jail is that the security cash deposit in the sum of Rs.8,000/- has been forfeited by the Authority. 2. On going through the original record produced by the learned A.P.P., it transpires that the said action has been taken on account of the breach committed by the Petitioner in adhering to the furlough leave period on which he was released. As a matter of fact, the Petitioner had submitted bond which clearly specifies that in the event he overstays the leave period, 2 3145.10.sxw the security amount deposited by him will be forfeited. The Authority has invoked that clause of the bond which is consistent with the Regulations in vogue. 3. We find no case for interference with the said decision of the Authority merely because the Petitioner had overstayed the furlough leave period only by two days. It is the discretion of the Authority to excuse that delay. In the present case, the Authority has declined that request. The order which is impugned in this Petition was inevitable. Accordingly, this Petition is dismissed. 4. Copy of this order be forwarded to the Petitioner who is in jail. (A.P.BHANGALE, J.) (A.M.KHANWILKAR, J.)
