DATED : 4th April, 2016.

Heard.

The petitioner has approached this Court being aggrieved by rejection of his application for furlough, by the respondent no.1. Since the ground given in the application for rejection was adverse the police report, we had requested the learned APP to get the original papers regarding inquiry conducted by the Police Officer.

Accordingly, learned APP has placed on record copy of the enquiry report. Perusal of the same would reveal that the wife of the petitioner as well as all other relatives, are opposed to his release on furlough. Not only that but none of them is willing to stand surety to the petitioner. It is stated in the enquiry report that when on an earlier occasion, he was released on furlough, he had absconded.

In that view of the matter, we do not find that the discretion exercised by the authority warrants

04.04.wp.30.16 interference. Criminal Writ Petition is rejected. The professional fees of Mr. A.A.Pannase Advocate (appointed) are quantified at Rs. 1500/- (rupees fifteen hundred).
