Though he had to return to jail in June after the decision of a high-powered committee, parole of the convict was increased till April 28, 2021.
He said the convict had to surrender in jail on April 28 but he jumped the parole.
Yesterday, a tip-off was received about the whereabouts of the convict. Accordingly, the police party conducted a raid and nabbed him. — TNS
