Abohar, October 16
Denying his prayer for indoor treatment, the Punjab and Haryana HC directed liquor baron Shiv Lal Doda’s nephew Amit Doda to surrender before the Superintendent, District Jail, Ropar. He will be allowed to take his auto-CPAP device (to treat sleep apnoea).
Amit had challenged his conviction in the Bhim Tank murder case and was undergoing life imprisonment. He was availing of concession of interim bail for medical treatment and prayed for further extension to get indoor treatment.
In the medical report it was found the petitioner was suffering from obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome. The Bench said the treatment to be given to him was not of the nature where he would require indoor admission in hospital. — OC
