Respondent. None for the Petitioner. Mrs. P. H.Kantharia, APP for the Respondent. CORAM : BILAL NAZKI and ANOOP V. MOHTA, JJ. DATED : 3RD FEBRUARY, 2009. P. C.: The petitioner's application for release on parole on the ground that his wife was not well was rejected by the respondent. It is submitted by the learned Public Prosecutor that in 2007 when he was released on parole, he overstayed by 72 days and again in the year 2008 when he was granted furlough, he overstayed by 40 days. 2. In these circumstances, we do not feel that the rejection of parole was without any basis. However, in the facts and circumstances of the case, we make it clear that if the petitioner applies again after a period of six months, his application may be considered. 2 3. The writ petition is, accordingly, dismissed. Sd/- (BILAL NAZKI, J.) Sd/- (ANOOP V. MOHTA, J.)
