Answer: Discretionary release

Explanation: Discretionary release is in fact discretionary parole even though the statutory prison sentence has not yet expired, and when the convicted prisoner must comply with the law in every sense and must be supervised by the community. In addition to being supervised by the community, such a person must also cooperate with the community personnel to ensure, monitor and enforce compliance with the conditions of release by the convicted person, i.e, whether the convicted person duly complies with all his / her freedom obligations, as in this case he / she must finds and maintains a job or education, etc.
