Rule. Mr.Kodekar waives service of Rule on behalf of respondents. #. The petitioner prayed for grant of parole leave for 40 days for construction of new house as the house in which the petitioner and his family were residing earlier has collapsed in the earthquake of 26.1.2001. This application came to be rejected under the order dated 8.3.2001 by Addl. District Magistrate, Porbandar. The ground given for rejection of the application is not perverse. In the family of the petitioner, his son is available and he can look after this work of construction of house. This is nothing but only an attempt on the part of the petitioner to make a ground for his release from jail. In the result, this special criminal application fails and the same is dismissed. Rule discharged. No order as to costs. ....... (sunil)
