The article details the case of Robin Tamang, a convicted murderer who evaded law enforcement for five years after being granted furlough from Mandoli Jail in Delhi. Tamang was sentenced to life imprisonment for the murder of his friend Neeraj during a dispute in 2013. After being released on furlough on September 3, 2021, he failed to surrender and instead disappeared, managing to elude police capture for several years.

Tamang's crime was described in chilling detail: he fatally stabbed Neeraj during an altercation triggered by a personal dispute involving a woman they both knew. After the murder, Tamang fled the scene but was subsequently arrested and sentenced to life imprisonment following the trial. His five-year flight from the law came to an end when Delhi police were able to locate and apprehend him near Anand Vihar railway station.

This case highlights concerns regarding the furlough system in Indian prisons, as it allows dangerous criminals like Tamang to escape prosecution and could lead to further criminal activities. The successful arrest of Tamang underscores the diligence of law enforcement but raises questions about the monitoring and regulations surrounding furloughs for life-sentenced prisoners.
