Headnote | Premature Release – Appellant had an affair with ‘S’, who threatened her often – Appellant took decision to commit suicide along with her children – Appellant survived – Children died – Trial Court convicted appellant u/ss. 302 and 309 IPC – High Court partly allowed appeal, acquitted appellant u/s. 309 and upheld the conviction u/s. 302 IPC – After undergoing imprisonment for 20 years, appellant applied for premature release – However, same was rejected by the State – Held: Appellant was in tremendous mental stress when she administered poison to her children – Application for premature release was rejected by the State on the ground that the appellant had administered poison to murder her two sons to continue her illicit relationship without any hinderance, which act was cruel and brutal in nature – However, the Court would note that the appellant never tried to murder her sons with a view to continue her illicit relationship – On the contrary, she had tried to commit suicide herself along with her children not with a view to continue her illicit relationship with her paramour but rather, in disappointment and frustration over the quarrel picked up by her paramour – Appellant herself was trying to end her life but was prevented by her niece in the nick of time – There is no valid reason/justifiable ground for the State not accepting the recommendation of the State Level Committee for premature release of the appellant – Thus, order of the State set aside – Appellant entitled to the benefit of premature release – Appellant directed to be released – Penal Code, 1860 – ss. 302 and 309. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
