20-Dec-2023 (In Criminal Law)
Who got granted a pardon, either by Governor or through President within 2-3 days of his conviction and the pardon passed unchallenged? Can a pardon be granted without an express petition.
A President is empowered with the power to pardon under Article 72 of the Indian Constitution. Article 72 says that the President shall have the power to grant pardons, reprieves, respites or remissions of punishment or to suspend, remit or commute the sentence of any person convicted of any offence.
