"He Was Found In A Pool Of Urine : Indira Jaising Tells Bombay High Court In Plea Seeking Medical Treatment For Varavara Rao [Courtroom Exchange]

Justice Shinde : Doctors working in government hospitals are working very hard. Sometimes they are working for more than 8 hours. They are not able to cope up with the number of patients.

Jaising: The recent report says his age is 45 years.

Justice Jamdar : May be it's a typo.

Jaising laughs.

Jaising reading out from the latest medical report to highlight the vulnerable health condition of Varavara Rao.

Justice Shinde : Suppose any problem arise for your relatives, do you take them to JJ and St George?

Anil Singh - It is not like people don't go to these Hospitals

Shinde J -We are not saying doctors are not good there.

Public Prosecutor Deepak Thakare submits that all tests could be conducted at JJ Hospital too.

Justice Jamdar to Prosecutor- Your own instructions say if medical condition requires then he needs to be shifted to hospital. Then what is the difficulty?

Justice Shinde : Even if he is shifted to Nanavati, he will continue to be in NIA custody.

The bench to Prosecutor : If you say you are willing to take him to Nanavati Hospital, we will not pass an order.

Jaising : Send him(Varavara Rao) to Nanavati and treat him. He is already suffering from multiple organ failure.

The bench asks Jaising if she is pressing for shifting to the hospital or interim bail.

Jaising says she is pressing for hospitalization now as bail requires substantial arguments.

Jaising submits that the State has to ensure that Varavara Rao survives to stand trial.

"It is not beneficial to you if he dies. What if he is acquitted? What is the price we pay?", she adds.
