Article 75
Conditional Release
Offenders sentenced to terms of imprisonment shall be eligible for conditional release after serving 2/3rds of their term of imprisonment. An offender serving a sentence of life imprisonment shall be eligible for conditional release from that sentence after service of 20 years imprisonment on that sentence.
#The decision whether or not to grant conditional release shall be made upon consideration of a report from the Prison Administration, and upon finding that the offender’s release will not depreciate the seriousness of his offence, that the offender has restituted, as far as he could reasonably be expected to do, the injured party or agreed with the injured party and that the offender's behavior in prison and efforts towards rehabilitation give rise to the conclusion that, upon his release from prison, the offender will pose no threat to the well-being or safety of the society or of any individuals.
#Any offender released on conditional release shall be placed on probation for the duration of the sentence imposed and shall be subject to terms and conditions, and revocation procedures, as described in Articles 82-87, except that, upon the successful completion of this period of probation, the offender shall not be entitled to have the Police record of his conviction deleted. In the case of an offender sentenced to life imprisonment and found eligible for conditional release, the probation period may not exceed five years.
