Summary: The Supreme Court dismissed Jasbir Singh's special leave petition challenging the High Court's 2019 judgment, after condoning the delay in filing. However, noting the petitioner has been incarcerated for over 13 years with remission, the Court directed the Correctional Home Superintendent to move Maharashtra's appropriate department for his premature release, subject to eligibility under the state's remission policy, with the state to decide promptly.
