Court’s Decision Based on Medical Reports
Asaram’s lawyer, Nishant Boda, presented recent medical reports to the court, citing his serious health condition. After reviewing these documents, the court decided to extend the interim bail period. Asaram is currently admitted to the ICU of Jupiter Hospital in Indore. The Gujarat High Court’s previous order revealed abnormally high ‘troponin levels’ in his blood, indicating serious heart-related problems. His treating physicians have described his condition as critical.
Order to Constitute a Panel of Doctors
The Rajasthan High Court bench of Justices Dinesh Mehta and Vineet Kumar Mathur issued specific instructions for a thorough investigation into Asaram’s health. The court ordered the constitution of a panel of expert doctors at a government hospital in Ahmedabad, including two cardiologists. This panel will investigate Asaram’s reported illnesses, particularly his heart problems. The court specifically instructed attention to the high ‘troponin’ levels, as they can be dangerous for the heart. The panel has been directed to submit a detailed report to the court as soon as possible after completing its investigation.
