I have categorically said that he(Varavara Rao) has dementia. Where is the report on his dementia? : Jaising.
He (Varavara Rao) was seen on video only for 15 minutes. I urge the court to shift him urgently to Nanavati hospital : Jaising.
The report has not been brought on record till November 17. This is delaying tactic. The report is a complete eyewash : Jaising.
'The delay is not suiting him(Varavara Rao)' : Jaising.
The Nanavati hospital itself has suggested tests on November 12, which have not been done yet. The Taloja jail hospital is not equipped to do these tests, she adds.
Jaising submits that the neurologist and the urologist have not seen Varavara Rao though he has neurological problems and urinary infection.
'He has to be seen by specialists and experts', Jaising.
Jaising submits that she is ready to come for a physical hearing.
