High Court of Gujarat

TARJUBHAI NARSINGHBHAI RATHVAversusSTATE OF GUJARAT

Decided: 10 April 2026
Disposal: 28-REJECTED @ ADM.STAGE
Bench: SANJEEV THAKER

Holding

The petition for parole leave was rejected.

Summary

Tarjubahai Narsinghbhai Rathva filed a special criminal application seeking a 30‑day parole leave to provide financial assistance to his family. The jail records showed that the petitioner had recently been released from custody between 18 October 2025 and 10 November 2025 and that his conduct while in jail was unsatisfactory. The court examined whether these circumstances justified granting parole. Considering the recent release and poor conduct, the court found no sufficient ground to grant parole. Consequently, the application was rejected and the order was directed to be communicated to the jail authority.

Issues considered

What is the appropriate basis for granting parole leave when the applicant has recently been released and has an unsatisfactory conduct record?
