According to Kashmir Media Service, during a recent hearing, the Modi government and Tihar Jail officials lied to the court claiming that Malik was refusing treatment. The court, presided by Justice Anoop Kumar Mendiratta, has directed the authorities to produce records proving Malik’s refusal. The jail superintendent has been instructed to submit Malik’s medical report by the next hearing date.
In a plea filed through his mother Aatika Malik, Yasin Malik urged the court to direct authorities to produce records of his treatment and facilitate his referral to a super-specialty hospital. The high court, scheduled to hear the plea on February 14, has emphasized the urgent need for proper and necessary treatment for Malik’s serious cardiac and kidney ailments.
While authorities argued that medical teams could be brought into the jail, Malik expressed a preference for a physical examination at the hospital.
In response to objections raised by Malik’s lawyer regarding a change in doctors and a new medical board, the court underscored Malik’s right to treatment.
