    Case Summary: WPCR 245/2026 The Chhattisgarh High Court dismissed petitioner Ramdayal Sahu's writ petition challenging the rejection of his application for 14+2 days ordinary leave under the Chhattisgarh Prisoner Leave Rules, 1989. Sahu, convicted of culpable homicide and evidence destruction with a 10-year sentence and incarcerated for 2.5+ years, sought to overturn the Additional District Magistrate's November 2025 rejection despite the jail superintendent's recommendation. The court upheld the rejection, citing adverse police reports expressing breach-of-peace concerns and the increasing problem of parolees absconding, prioritizing public safety over the petitioner's leave eligibility.
