HON'BLE SHRI KISHAN SWAROOP CHAUDHARI,J. ORDER ----- Heard learned Public Prosecutor. Perused the letter of the Social Welfare Department dt. 22.8.2008 available at page-14 with the additional affidavit wherein the Social Welfare Department has reported that the threat given by the step brothers of the prisoner has become stale, and now chances of risk to the accused are bleak, and grant of parole has been recommended. It is notwithstanding this that parole has been refused. The accused has already remained in custody for more than 8 years, and report of the police authorities are stereo type repeating the background of the incident being that the accused had come along with his sister with his mother in Nata contacted with the deceased by her, and therefore, the sons from the earlier wife who, had already died are aggrieved, and till some social settlement is 2 arrived at, the things remain tense. Obviously if some efforts are made for social settlement, then for that prisoner is required to be released on parole. Considering the totality of circumstances we are inclined to grant first parole to the petitioner. Accordingly, the application is allowed, and the accused Ganga Ram s/o Babu Ahari, r/o Manipur, Dist. Dungarpur be released on parole for 20 days on his submitting personal bond of Rs.30,000/- and two sureties of Rs.15,000/- each and on other just and appropriate conditions determined by the Superintendent, Central Jail, Udaipur to his own satisfaction. However, the latest colour photograph of accused and sureties shall also be taken. The Superintendent, Central Jail, Udaipur will also give a date for surrender. ( KISHAN SWAROOP CHAUDHARI ),J.
