“I still firmly believe that the State government will take efforts for the quick release of my son Perarivalan,” stated Arputham Ammal, mom of A.G. Perarivalan, one of many seven convicts within the Rajiv Gandhi assassination case.
Her response comes within the wake of Solicitor General Tushar Mehta informing the Supreme Court that Tamil Nadu Governor Banwarilal Purohit would take a call within the subsequent three or 4 days on the State authorities’s suggestion to launch seven convicts, together with A.G. Perarivalan, present process life imprisonment for the assassination of former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi in 1991.
Arputham Ammal, who’s unwell, tweeted that she had pinned her hopes on the State authorities concerning her son’s launch.
Perarivalan’s father Gnanasekaran stated that it was going to be 30 years since his son has been in jail. “We have been waiting for his release for a long time now and we are hopeful to get it this time,” he stated.
K.Sivakumar, advocate for Perarivalan, stated that in September 2018, the Supreme Court requested the Governor to resolve the pardon plea and some days after this, the Tamil Nadu Cabinet made the advice to the Governor to launch the prisoners.
“He landed in jail in 1991 and ever since his behaviour has been good. He has completed his M.Phil., in prison. Besides, his health condition is also not good,” he added.
