IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. Criminal Writ Petition No.1858 of 2011 (O&M) DATE OF DECISION : SEPTEMBER 28, 2011 SUKHPAL SINGH ....... PETITIONER(S) VERSUS STATE OF PUNJAB & ORS. .... RESPONDENT(S) CORAM : HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE AJAI LAMBA PRESENT: None for the petitioner(s). Mr. KDS Sidhu, Addl.AG, Punjab. AJAI LAMBA, J. (Oral) The petition prays for grant of parole to the petitioner for three weeks, for the marriage of brother-in-law of the petitioner, which is scheduled for 2.10.2011. Reply on behalf of respondents No.2 to 4 has been filed in court today, which is taken on record. As per the reply, the petitioner is not entitled to parole as he has not completed a period of 4 months of sentence. Learned counsel for the respondent-State, on instructions from ASI Nachattar Singh, has pointed out that the petitioner had to be declared a proclaimed offender because he had absconded and, therefore, the past conduct of the petitioner does not entitle him to the relief claimed in this petition. In view of the stand of the respondent-State, no ground for indulgence is made out. The petition is, accordingly, dismissed. September 28, 2011 ( AJAI LAMBA ) Kang JUDGE
