Justice Anoop Kumar Mendiratta recorded the statement made by the counsel and disposed of Malik's petition in which he sought a direction to authorities to produce the record of his treatment and refer him to AIIMS or any private super-specialty hospital here or in Jammu and Kashmir for proper and necessary treatment as he was suffering from serious cardiac and kidney ailments.
