We are informed that the convict prisoner has not breached any of the conditions on which leave was granted, that the conduct of the convict prisoner while on leave has been blemishless and there is no disputation or contestation on this. We are also informed that there is no disputation or contestation regarding the advanced stage of pregnancy or ill health/complications qua convict prisoner''s spouse''s health (writ petitioner) and the convict prisoner''s mother''s ill health. 8.
