Chennai: The Madras High Court on Friday granted 10 days parole to a 38-year-old convict, undergoing life imprisonment for murder, to enable him to marry his beloved.
A division bench comprising Justices S Rajeswaran and P N Prakash granted 10 days parole to Somasundaram on a petition by the bride, an advocate, that the marriage is fixed for February 2 after the betrothal on January 17. “Somasundaram should be released from the prison at 4 pm tomorrow and he should return at 7 pm on February 10. Necessary escorts should be deployed for his safety and security during the parole,” the judges said. (PTI)
