The Delhi High Court on Thursday extended parole to Manu Sharma for one month, so that he could prepare and submit his masters’ thesis. He was serving a life term in the Jessica Lal murder case. Justice S. Muralidhar, while extending Sharma’s parole, asked him to surrender on 2 August. Sharma was earlier granted 15 days’ parole to sit for his exams which were scheduled to commence from 19 June to 24 June. He has been pursuing his post-graduate examination in human rights.
Sharma, 36, shot dead the 34-year-old ramp model working as a celebrity waitress at the Tamarind Court restaurant of socialite Bina Ramani in south Delhi’s Mehrauli area on 29 April, 1999, after she refused to serve him a drink. Sharma was sentenced to life imprisonment by the high court in December 2006. The life term was upheld by the Supreme Court.
