Refusal was also upheld where the competent authority had material suggesting a risk to public peace and tranquillity, including alleged threats to witnesses and officials, alleged attempts to influence persons connected with the case, and unsatisfactory conduct in custody.

The impugned grant was set aside. en-us Wed, 20 Oct 2021 00:00:00 +0530 Sun, 21 Nov 2021 19:17:52 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=414942 Furlough under the Bombay Furlough and Parole Rules, 1959 is a regulated discretionary release and not an absolute legal right, because the Rules use permissive language, set eligibility conditions, and expressly deny any enforceable entitlement.
