(1.) THE petitioner-convict, having been granted permanent parole subject to the condition of furnishing two sureties in the sum of Rs. 25,000/- each along with a personal bond in the sum of Rs. 50,000/-, has sent this letter petition with the prayer that he may be allowed to avail the benefit of parole by accepting his personal bond instead.
(2.) THE petitioner has stated that during his long incarceration for over 16 years, the whole world has changed; and has pointed out several of the adverse circumstances, including poor financial condition, wherefor he is not in a position to arrange for the requisite sureties. THE petitioner has also pointed out that he availed one parole per the order of this Court; and was granted another parole by the Collector but he not could avail of the same because except his old mother, nobody is in his family to make the arrangements.
(3.) IT is made clear that we have only modified the condition regarding bond/sureties as above. Other conditions mentioned in the order granting parole shall apply.
