The Delhi High Court has granted five days parole to Manu Sharma, serving life term in Tihar Jail for killing ramp model Jessica Lall in 1999, on the condition that he will not visit night clubs or discotheques during the period.

Allowing Sharma’s plea to attend his younger brother’s marriage, Justice V K Shali granted the temporary relief to him from 21st November to 25th November.

“The petitioner (Sharma) is allowed to be released on parole for five days but he shall not visit any night club or discotheque,” Justice Shali said, directing Sharma to surrender before the Tihar Jail superintendent soon after his parole period expires.

The court confined the parole to Chandigarh, Karnal and Ambala and asked Sharma to furnish the residential addresses of these three places to the jail superintendent.

The court further asked him to furnish a personal bond of Rs 50,000 and a surety of like amount before the jail superintendent.

Manu Sharma, the son of an influential Congress leader Venod Sharma, sought parole to attend his brother’s marriage and related functions.
