85-year-old Swamy Shraddananda, jailed for murdering his wife in 1991, seeks mercy citing age and illness. Supreme Court lists the plea after 12 weeks for Centre’s response.
The Delhi High Court rejected the parole application of Feroz Ahmed Bhatt, a convicted terrorist associated with Jaish-e-Mohammed, due to security concerns and the gravity of his offense. Despite his desire to meet his parents and get married, the court arranged a video call instead. The court cited the risks associated with his release and a previous case where a co-accused rejoined a terrorist organization after being released on parole.
