We had earlier reported that, actor Sanjay Dutt has requested for an extension on his parole to be with his wife Manyata in her recovering days. The actor has been granted one more month extension, but this will be his last parole for the year. 

Deputy Commissioner Tukaram Pawar said, “As per rules, a parole cannot be granted for more than 90 days in a year and this is his (Dutt’s) last application that has been sanctioned for the year.” 

But, now a PIL has been filed in the Bombay High against the actor’s parole extension. Pune based lawyer Tushar Pabale, the petitioner, urged the court to frame rule for grant of parole and furlough.

Tushar’s lawyer Nikhil Chaudhari said, “There is ambiguity in the Bombay Furlough and Parole Rules. Their provisions are not clear. We have, hence, asked the court to frame guidelines.” 

“Rich and influential persons are being released on parole repeatedly, while common convicts are having to move the HC to seek parole. There are so many such applications pending before the High Court,” he added.
