Mr.U.R.Bhatt waives service of rule on behalf of the<br \/>\nrespondents.\n<\/p>\n<p>3.\tBy<br \/>\nmeans of filing this petition under Article 226 of the Constitution<br \/>\nof India and under the provisions of the Bombay Parole and Furlough<br \/>\nRules, 1959, the petitioner who is undergoing life imprisonment<br \/>\nimposed on him by the learned Special Designated Court(TADA) in Case<br \/>\nno.8\/1993 for the offence punishable under Sections 302, 307.120(B),<br \/>\n34 of the Indian Penal Code read with Section 25(1)(c) of the Arms<br \/>\nAct and Section 3,5 of the TADA Act on 21-10-2002, the appeal against<br \/>\nwhich is pending has approached this Court with a prayer to quash and<br \/>\nset aside the order dated 5-2-2008 passed by the respondent no.2 at<br \/>\nAnnexure &#8216;C&#8217; to the petition as also for a direction releasing the<br \/>\npetitioner on furlough leave for a period of three weeks.\n<\/p>\n<p>4.\tIt<br \/>\nis the case of the petitioner that the petitioner had been denied the<br \/>\nfurlough leave in the year 2006 by the competent authority  by<br \/>\nimposing Section 268 of the Criminal Procedure Code. According to the<br \/>\npetitioner, he therefore preferred Spl.Cri.Application no.887 of 2006<br \/>\nbefore this High Court and by order dated 28-12-2006 the respondents<br \/>\nwere directed to consider the case of the petitioner for furlough<br \/>\nwithout considering Section 268 Cr.P.C.and accordingly the case of<br \/>\nthe petitioner for furlough was considered and granted vide<br \/>\ncommunication dated 2-3-2007. It is further the case of the<br \/>\npetitioner that on completion of the furlough he had surrendered and<br \/>\nagain appied for furlough leave in November, 2007 which came to be<br \/>\nrejected by the competent authority on the ground that Section 268<br \/>\nCr.P.C. is applicable. The petitioner then preferred Special Criminal<br \/>\nApplication no.2199 of 2007 before this High Court wherein a<br \/>\ndirection was given to the respondent-competent authority vide order<br \/>\ndated 16-11-2007 that the furlough leave application of the<br \/>\npetitioner be decided within a period of two weeks from the date of<br \/>\nreceipt of the writ. However the respondent-competent authority vide<br \/>\norder dated 5-2-2008 rejected the furlough leave application of the<br \/>\npetitioner on the ground that Section 268 Cr.P.C. is applicable<br \/>\nagainst the petitioner. It is against this order that the present<br \/>\npetitioner has approached this Court by way of the present Special<br \/>\nCriminal Application.\n<\/p>\n<p>5.\tIt<br \/>\nis submitted by learned Advocate Mr.H.S.Mulia that the competent<br \/>\nauthority has rejected  the furlough leave application of the<br \/>\npetitioner on the guise that Section 268 of the Criminal Procedure<br \/>\nCode is applicable against him. He submitted that furlough leave is a<br \/>\nstatutory right of the petitioner which cannot be curtailed.<br \/>\nAccording to the learned Counsel once furlough leave is granted to<br \/>\nthe petitioner by revoking  the order under Section 268, then even<br \/>\nthe subsequent applications for furlough leave cannot be rejected by<br \/>\nthe authority on the ground that Section 268 Cr.P.C. is applicable.\n<\/p>\n<p>6.\tAs<br \/>\nagainst that learned A.P.P. Mr. U.R.Bhatt submitted that the order<br \/>\nrejecting the furlough leave application of the petitioner  by<br \/>\napplying  Section 268 of the Criminal Procedure Code against the<br \/>\npetitioner is quite legal and proper which does not call for any<br \/>\ninterference.\n<\/p>\n<p>7.\tThis<br \/>\nCourt has gone through the record of the present petitioner. There is<br \/>\nadverse police opinion against the present petitioner which is based<br \/>\non authentic information. It cannot be disputed that while granting<br \/>\nfurlough leave, it is required to consider the gravity and<br \/>\nseriousness of the offence for which the  present petitioner has been<br \/>\nconvicted. In the present case, it is a hard fact that the present<br \/>\npetitioner has been convicted in  the said case for offence<br \/>\npunishable under Sections 302, 307, 120(B) , 34 of the  the Indian<br \/>\nPenal Code read with Section 25(1)(c) of the Arms Act and Sections<br \/>\n3,5 of the TADA Act . Apart from this, it has been specifically<br \/>\nstated in the affidavit-in -reply tendered on behalf of the<br \/>\nrespondent no.2 that there were 20 offences registered against the<br \/>\npetitioner and at present there are 5 cases registered against the<br \/>\npetitioner pending for trial at various Courts and that he has also<br \/>\nbeen convicted in some other cases.  The remarks against the<br \/>\npetitioner are that the petitioner is a dreaded criminal belonging to<br \/>\nthe notorious Latif Gang and that he is involved in grave offences<br \/>\naffecting public order.\n<\/p>\n<p>8.\tIt<br \/>\nis in this background that I am now required to consider whether or<br \/>\nnot the petitioner is entitled to the furlough leave as also<br \/>\nexemption from the operation of the order under Section 268(1) of the<br \/>\nCr.P.C. For this purpose, it is necessary to invite reference to<br \/>\nthe decision rendered in the case of Motisingh Kesirisinh v. State of<br \/>\nGujarat reported in 1994(2) G.L.R.1145 wherein at para-5 of the<br \/>\njudgment  wherein it has been observed that:\n<\/p>\n<p>\t?S The discretion of the High<br \/>\nCourt by virtue of extraordinary \tpowers under Art.226 of the<br \/>\nConstitution of India cannot be \tlightly exercised in matters where<br \/>\nthe authorities have quite \tjustly and properly exercised its<br \/>\ndiscretion. How to manage and \tregulate the Jail administration is<br \/>\nessentially and entirely a \tconcern and look out of the Jail<br \/>\nauthorities and as long as the \torders passed by them are just, fair<br \/>\nand proper, this Court has \tno right or business to meddle with the<br \/>\nsame and thereby in the \tinternal affairs of the Prison<br \/>\nadministration??.\n<\/p>\n<p>9.\tRule 4(4)(5)(6) and 10) of<br \/>\nthe Bombay Furlough and Parole Rules ,1959 reads as under:\n<\/p>\n<p>\t?S4.\tWhen prisoners shall not<br \/>\nbe granted furlough.-\n<\/p>\n<p>The following categories of<br \/>\nprisoners shall not be considered for release on furlough:-\n<\/p>\n<p>\txxx xxxx xxxx<\/p>\n<p>\txxx xxx xxxx<\/p>\n<p>\txxx xxx  xxxx<\/p>\n<p>\tPrisoners whose release is not<br \/>\n\trecommended in Greater Bombay by the Commissioner of Police and<br \/>\n\telsewhere, by the District Magistrate o n the ground of public peace<br \/>\n\tand tranquility.\n<\/p>\n<p>\tPrisoners, who, in the opinion<br \/>\n\tof the Superintendent of the prison show a tendency towards crime.\n<\/p>\n<p>\tPrisoners whose conduct is in<br \/>\n\tthe opinion of the Superintendentof the Prison, not satisfactory<br \/>\n\tenough.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t xxx xxx xxx  xxx<\/p>\n<p>\txxx xxx xxx xxx<\/p>\n<p>\txxx xxx xxx xxx<\/p>\n<p>\tPrisoners who have at any time<br \/>\n\tescaped or attempted to escape from lawful custody or have defaulted<br \/>\n\tin any way in surrendering themselves at the appropriate time after<br \/>\n\trelease on parole on furlough.??\n<\/p>\n<p>10.\t\tKeeping the aforesaid<br \/>\nprinciples in mind this Court has examined the case of the petitioner<br \/>\nfor grant of furlough leave  and it is found that there is a concrete<br \/>\ninformation with the police department that the present petitioner is<br \/>\na habitual offender and hardened criminal and there is every<br \/>\nlikelihood of his absconding and also of engaging himself in<br \/>\nantisocial activities if his furlough leave application is granted.<br \/>\nIt is also pertinent to note that  he was involved in several other<br \/>\ncases which are pending trial and in some other cases also he has<br \/>\nbeen convicted.\n<\/p>\n<p>11.\t Reference in this<br \/>\nconnection, may be had to the decision in the  case of <a href=\"\/doc\/1913029\/\">State of<br \/>\nMaharashtra &amp; Anr. v. Suresh Pandurang Darvakar<\/a> reported in 2006<br \/>\nAIR SCW 3222. wherein it has been  held by the Honourable Supreme<br \/>\nCourt in Para 9 of the judgment as under:\n<\/p>\n<p>\t?S9. Unfortunately, the High<br \/>\nCourt does not appear to have addressed itself to  these relevant<br \/>\naspects. It took note of the fact that nobody was willing to stand<br \/>\nsurety for release of the respondent. The High Court directed that he<br \/>\ncan be released on furnishing surety of amount lying in deposit with<br \/>\nthe jail authoritties. That is not the only condition for  release on<br \/>\nfurlough. There is another requirement. Even if it is held for the<br \/>\nsake of argument that furnishing of surety  of any amount lying in<br \/>\ndeposit with the jail authorities can be construed to be in<br \/>\ncompliance with the requirements of Rule 6, Rule 4(4) mandates<br \/>\nthat the prisoner who seeks to be released cannot be released if not<br \/>\nrecommended by the concerned authority on the ground of public peace<br \/>\nand tranquility. The High Court has not recorded any finding that<br \/>\nthe  report of the District Magistrate and\/or Superintendent of<br \/>\nPolice had not objected to the release on furlough on the ground of<br \/>\npublic peace and tranquility.??\n<\/p>\n<p>12.\tThe stand taken by the<br \/>\nlearned Counsel for the petitioner that once the order under Section<br \/>\n268(1) of the Criminal Procedure Code is revoked and furlough leave<br \/>\nis granted, the competent authority cannot reject the subsequent<br \/>\nfurlough leave of the petitioner also cannot be accepeted for the<br \/>\nsimple reason that at that point of time  the relief of furlough was<br \/>\nconsidered for that particular period for which it was applied  may<br \/>\nbe under certain special circumstances prevailing at that time,and<br \/>\nnot for all times to come. In my view, convicts against whom appeals<br \/>\nare pending can  be released on bail  only by the Appellate Court<br \/>\nunder Sec.389(1) of the Cr.P.C. and not by the administration.\n<\/p>\n<p>13.\t In view of the above, it<br \/>\nis  clear that  a prisoner who  seeks to be released cannot be<br \/>\nreleased if not recommended by the concerned authority on the ground<br \/>\nof public peace and tranquility. In the present case  there is<br \/>\nabsence of recommendation by the concerned authority for the release<br \/>\nof the present petitioner, police opinion is adverse and taking into<br \/>\nconsideration his past record and history, the order passed by the<br \/>\njail authority is legal and proper  and does not call for any<br \/>\ninteference.  Reference may also be had to the Full Bench<br \/>\ndecision rendered  by this High Court in the case of  LATIF<br \/>\nCHHOTUMIYA SHAIKH V. STATE OF GUJARAT reported in 2000(3) 4 G.L.R p.<br \/>\n2363 wherein it has been held as under at paras -32 and 33 of the<br \/>\njudgment.:\n<\/p>\n<p>\t?S32. \tThus, powers under the<br \/>\nprovisions contained in the Bombay (Furlough and Parole) Rules, 1959<br \/>\ncannot be exercised by the executive in favour of a convict<br \/>\nundergoing sentence whose appeal is pending before the Court. The<br \/>\nDivision Bench in the case of  <a href=\"\/doc\/876351\/\">State of Gujarat v. Jayantilal M.<br \/>\nPatel<\/a> (1995 (2) GLH 260 examined the scheme of the Bombay(Furlough<br \/>\nand Parole) Rules, 1959 and Sec.389(1) of Criminal Procedure Code.<br \/>\nThe Division Bench following the decision of the Apex Court in case<br \/>\nof K.M.Nanavati(supra) and agree with the views of Division Bench of<br \/>\nBombay High Court in case of Jayanti Veerappa Shetty v. State of<br \/>\nMaharashtra (1985 Cr.LR (Maharashtra)598) held that the power of<br \/>\ngrant of parole cannot be exercised by the administration where the<br \/>\nappeals of convicts concerned are pending and such persons can be<br \/>\nreleased on bail only by the Appellate Court under Sec.389(1) of the<br \/>\nCode of Criminal Procedure??and not by the administration.??\n<\/p>\n<p>\t?S33.\tIn our opinion, a<br \/>\nconvict undergoing sentence imposed by the competent authority cannot<br \/>\nbe released on parole or furlough by High Court when an appeal<br \/>\narising out of the said judgment of conviction and sentence is<br \/>\npending.??\n<\/p>\n<p>14.\t\tConsidering all these<br \/>\naspects, this application deserves to be rejected, and is accordingly<br \/>\nrejected.\n<\/p>\n<p>(M.D.Shah,J.)<\/p>\n<p>lee.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t\t   \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\t\t   Top<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gujarat High Court Liyakathusen vs Administrative on 30 July, 2008 Author: Md Shah,&amp;Nbsp;
