% 08.02.2018 CRL.M.A.No. 2460/2018 (Exemption) Exemption allowed subject to all just exceptions. The application stands disposed of.

W.P.(CRL) 419/2018 1.

The instant writ petition under Article 226 of the Constitution of India read with Section 482 Cr.P.C. has been filed on behalf of the petitioner for seeking parole for a period of three months to maintain social ties with family members and society; to curb inner stress and depression.

2.

I have heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and have examined the nominal roll. It reveals that the petitioner was convicted

under Section 302 IPC and Sections 25/27 Arms Act and was sentenced to undergo imprisonment for life with fine `10,000/-. Crl.A.1191/2012 was dismissed by this Court on 19.01.2016. It further reveals that in the year 2017, at different stages, the petitioner has been granted furlough for various durations. The last furlough for three weeks was granted on 22.11.2017 to 13.12.2017. 3.

Since the petitioner was granted furlough only in November / December, 2017 and before that in July, 2017 and May, 2017, his further request without any sufficient cause cannot be acceded to. The parole / furlough should not be a regular and continuous feature. 4.

The writ petition is unmerited and is dismissed. S.P.GARG, J.
