Notably, on April 13 the Rajasthan authorities had issued an order granting parole of 148 prisoners in wake of COVID-19 breakout. The list included name of Harnek Singh Bhapp. But his parole order was withdrawn before his release on April 17 after holding a special meeting of Rajashtan parole board.

Advocate Jaspal Singh Manjhpur, who maintains the list of Sikh political prisoners, told Sikh Siyasat News (SSN) that a petition against withdrawal of Harnek Singh Bhapp’s parole was filed in Rajashtan High Court.

Advocate Vishram Prajapati had appeared on behalf of Bhai Harnek Singh Bhapp before the high court during today’s hearing, he added.
