% 11.07.2018 The petitioner seeks parole to repair his sole residential house; arrange funds for the same and maintain social ties with his family and friends. His request for the same was rejected by the State because he had availed three furloughs from 18.04.2017 to 10.12.2017. The petitioner has annexed photographs to show that his house is under construction. Even otherwise, his father is 76 years of age and is an agricultural labour. He has a young wife to take care of. This aspect has been verified by the police and has been so stated in the Status Report. However, there is no reference to the photographs attached to the petition. The Nominal Roll of the petitioner shows that he has undergone incarceration for 14 years 3 months and 2 days as of 12th March, 2018 and as of 16.03.2018, he has earned a

remission of 2 years 8 months and 20 days. He has been granted furlough and parole three times each but he has never misused the liberty granted. Presently, his overall conduct in jail is satisfactory where he is working as Sahayak in the jail kitchen. In view of the foregoing, the Court finds no impediment in allowing the present petition. Consequently, the petitioner is enlarged on parole for a period of one month from the date of his release on his furnishing a personal bond in the sum of Rs.10,000/- with one surety of the like amount to the satisfaction of the Jail Superintendent concerned subject to the following conditions:- (1) the petitioner shall report to the Officer Incharge of the local Police Post/Police Station having jurisdiction over his place of residence once a fortnight on a Tuesday during the period of parole; (2) he shall furnish his telephone number to the said Officer Incharge, which the petitioner shall keep operational at all times;

(3) he shall surrender before the jail authorities at the expiry of the period of parole.

With the above directions the writ petition is disposed-off. A copy of this order be given dasti to the learned counsel for the parties and a copy be sent to the Jail Superintendent for compliance. NAJMI WAZIRI, J JULY 11, 2018/acm
