Summary: The Supreme Court heard a criminal special leave petition by Devi Ghosh against the State of Jharkhand on 25-03-2026. The Court dismissed the petition, declining to interfere with the High Court's judgment, but directed the Superintendent of the Correctional Home to approach the State Government for petitioner's premature release under remission policy, given nearly 12 years of incarceration suffered.
