The court also ordered that life convicts who have undergone imprisonment of 10 years or more be entitled to bail, while those who have stayed for more than 14 years be considered by Allahabad high court for premature release, besides being released on bail.

It is only the underprivileged people who have to languish in prisons as those belonging to the high society escape the country, the Supreme Court observed on Friday while granting bail to 18 life convicts in Uttar Pradesh.

The court also ordered that life convicts who have undergone imprisonment of 10 years or more be entitled to bail, while those who have stayed for more than 14 years be considered by Allahabad high court for premature release, besides being released on bail.

A bench of justices Sanjay Kishan Kaul and MM Sundresh was hearing a batch of petitions by the life convicts who pointed out that they had already carried out varying terms of punishment, ranging from 10 to 17 years but their appeals against the conviction orders were not being taken up by Allahabad high court.

Appearing for the petitioners, senior advocate Ravi Prakash Mehrotra informed the bench that two of the convicts were granted premature release under the United Provinces Prisoners Release on Probation Act 1938 while the bail order of a third one was reserved by the high court.
