ORAL ORDER : ANANT S. DAVE, J. Rule. Learned APP waives service of notice of rule on behalf of the respondent-State. 2. This application has been filed for releasing the applicant, a life convict, on temporary bail on the ground that his father has expired on 1.12.2017 In support of his submission, the photocopy of Death Certificate issued by the competent authority is produced on record. 3. We have gone through the jail record, which indicates that the applicant is in jail for about 9 years and 3 months and having satisfactory jail records. The conduct of the convict in the jail is also reported to be good. 4. In view of the above and keeping in mind the jail record of the convict, the applicant, convict prisoner, is ordered to be released on temporary bail for the period of 3 (three) weeks, on usual terms and conditions, upon the convict executing a personal bond in the sum of Rs. 2,000/- (Rupees two thousand only) before the jail authority. The applicant shall mark his presence before the nearest police station once in a week during this period. He shall surrender before the jail authority immediately after the aforesaid period is over. 5. However, in view of period of imprisonment so far as the other three co-convicts are given benefit of remission by the State authority, we are inclined to fix the Criminal Appeal No. 400 of 2014 in 3rd weeks of January, 2018. 6. Rule is made absolute. Direct service is permitted.
