The Madurai Bench of Madras High Court has directed life convict P. Veera Bhaarathi to surrender before the Superintendent of Prison at Puzhal Central Prison in Chennai. He was out on parole to argue the case to consider his request for premature release.
A Division Bench of Justices S. Vaidyanathan and G. Jayachandran took note of the fact that Veera Bhaarathi was granted parole from time to time to contest his case as party-in-person. The parole was extended from 2017.

“Judicial time is a valuable public resource. Every frivolous or misconceived invocation of constitutional jurisdiction results in diversion of time from genuinely deserving litigants,” said the Madurai Bench of the Madras High Court while imposing a cost of ₹50,000 on a man from Theni district who filed a petition with an unusual prayer: permission to conduct daily protests till the ‘World War’ ends.
