Subject: Issuance of General Guidelines to

consider the cases for the premature

release of life convicts Prisoners by

the State Sentence review Board of

Goa.

In exercise of the powers conferred under

sections 432 read with section 433 and 433A

of the Criminal Procedure Code, 1973,

Government of Goa hereby frames the

following general guidelines to consider the

cases for the premature release of life convicts

of Goa, namely:—

General Guidelines for the State Sentence

Review Board in View of Sub-Rule (8) of

Rule 1245 of Goa Prisons Rules, 2021.

sentence and covered under provision of

prison after serving the sentence of 14 years of actual imprisonment i.e. without remission.

However, completion of 14 years in prison by itself would not entitle a life convict to

automatically release from the prison and the State Sentence Review Board shall have the

discretion to release a convict, at an appropriate time in all cases considering the circumstance

in which the crime was committed and other relevant factors.

2. The State Sentence Review Board shall consider factors like: (a) Whether the convict has

lost his potential for committing crime considering his overall conduct in Jail during the 14

years of actual incarceration; (b) The possibility of reclaiming the convict as a useful member

of the society; (c) Socio-economic condition of the convict’s family.

3. These guidelines are for the guidance of State Sentence Review Board to arrive at a

logical decision in premature release of prisoners undergoing life sentence from time to time.

4. The period of imprisonment to be undergone including remission subject to minimum

years of actual imprisonment including set off period for various crimes shall be as specified
