HC refuses Wangchuk's wife Angmo's immediate request to shift him out of govt hospital, seeks status report
Delhi High Court refused immediate request by Sonam Wangchuk's wife Gitanjali J Angmo to shift him from Safdarjung Hospital to a private facility.
The court noted Wangchuk is not in detention and family members have been given access and a separate room.
Justice Mini Pushkarna sought a status report on Wangchuk's health within three days, with next hearing on July 24.
Angmo alleged restricted movement and lack of accurate health information, claiming it is 'illegal detention' not medical care.
Wangchuk has been on hunger strike since June 28 supporting Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) protest demanding education minister Dharmendra Pradhan's resignation over NEET irregularities.
