Dara, who is serving life imprisonment in the brutal murder of Staines and his two minor sons, had on July last year moved the Supreme Court seeking remission on the ground that Rajiv Gandhi’s killer has been granted mercy and released accordingly, and thereby he should also be released similarly.In the same case, Singh had also been convicted in the murder of Muslim trader Shaikh Rehman, severing his arms before setting him on fire at Padiabeda village in Karanjia sub-division of Mayurbhanj district. He was also convicted of the murder of a Christian priest, Fr. Arul Das, in Jamboni village in the same district. The priest was killed by an arrow during his escape, after his church was set on fire.Vishnu Jain, lawyer for Singh, in the plea, sought his release citing the judgement that granted mercy to the convict in Rajiv Gandhi assassination case. “I am seeking a direction to be released from jail on this ground,” Jain said.Singh in his plea said that he repented the offences as he was then “overwhelmed by distress at the barbaric deeds inflicted upon India by the Mughals and the British”.“I am around 61 years age. I have never been released on parole,” Singh, who originally hails from Auraiya District in Uttar Pradesh, said. He also stated that when his mother passed away, he could not perform her last rites.
