    WPCR No. 203/2026 - Parshuram v. State of Chhattisgarh The High Court of Chhattisgarh quashed the state's order rejecting prisoner Parshuram's premature release application, finding it was a non-speaking order completely bereft of reasons, violating Rule 358(7)(viii) of the Chhattisgarh Prison Rules, 1968. The Court also held that authorities wrongly interpreted Rule 358(6)(ix) by equating conviction in a single case involving multiple victims with "guilty of murder in two or more cases"—the rule clearly refers to distinct prosecutions, not number of victims. The matter was remanded for reconsideration within 4 weeks with reasoned deliberation of all relevant factors. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
