Budhi Singh vs State Of Nct Of Delhi on 3 July, 2023

33. The learned amicus further relied on the judgement passed by the Hon'ble Apex Court in State of Gujarat v. Narayan a Narayan Sai @ MotaBhagwanAsaram: 2021 SCC OnLine SC 949; wherein a convict who was convicted under Section 376 IPC applied for furlough, and the same was rejected by the DG Prisons., which was later overturned by the Hon'ble High Court. While setting aside the order of the High Court (which granted furlough to the convict), the Hon'ble Apex Court held that a prisoner does not have an absolute legal right to claim furlough. The grant of furlough must be balanced against the public interest and can be refused to certain categories of prisoners.

Sandhya vs The Secretary on 31 July, 2023

17. We notice that the Prisons Act or Rules neither employ the term 'parole' nor 'furlough'. However, the underlying principles emerging from the above referred binding precedents would only reiterate our finding based on the interpretation the Prisons Act and Rules, that grant of parole/leave cannot be an absolute/vested right in the hands of the prisoner. Instead, it is circumscribed by the stipulations in Section 73 in the matter of parole and Section 78, read with Rule 397, in the matter of leave. We repeat to note that both under Sections 73 and 78, the language employed is "may". Rule 397(l) of the Prisons Rules is comparable to Rule(4) of Prisons (Bombay Furlough and Parole) Rules dealt with in Narayan (supra).

Govabhai Nagjibhai Rabari Thro Sitaben ... vs State Of Gujarat on 3 January, 2024

NEUTRAL CITATION R/SCR.A/10500/2023 ORDER DATED: 03/01/2024 undefined 5.3 It is true that the Hon'ble Apex Court in its judgment in case of Narayan Sai (supra) has held that furlough leave is not available as a matter of legal right. However, the statute entitles the convict for being enlarged on furlough leave. Therefore, though furlough leave may not be claimed as a matter of legal right, the statute enables the convict to claim the same and such claim is required to be decided in accordance with the provisions of Rules 3 and 4 of the Prisoners (Bombay Furlough and Parole) Rules, 1959. Rule 4 of the Rules clarifies circumstances wherein the convict cannot be released on furlough. The concerned authority has declined the application of the petitioner mainly on the ground of Rule 4(4) of the Rules. The record indicates that the petitioner has been previously considered for parole leave with police escort and no untoward incident is reported on any of the occasions.
