BalakrishnaPillai declines Parol

Monday, May 16, 2011: Kerala Congress (B) leader and former minister R Balakrishna Pillai who is undergoing one year rigorous imprisonment in the Poojappura Central jail in connection with the Idamalayar case, has rejected the Home Department’s offer to release him on parole.

Pillai rejected the offer pointing out that the order has set many terms and conditions for the release including that he should not attend any Public functions and not to give interviews to media.

Balakrishna Pillai, who was out on emergency parole which he got citing ill health of his wife, had returned to Poojapura Central prison here on Thursday. Soon after reaching the prison, he filed another application for parole.
