After Zou was released on bail on May 21, he attended at the Christian Hospital, Imphal as an Outpatient and after having done examination of his health condition and after getting advice from the doctor, he was admitted to the said hospital on June 2 and the Cholecystectomy was done on June 4. He was discharged on June 8 with the advice to attend on June 13 for check-up and complete bed rest for 1 (one) month.
Lhukhosei Zou today appeared before the court of A Noutuneshwari and applied for another interim bail. However, after hearing the Special Public Prosecutor, the bench of Justice A Noutuneshwari remanded the accused person into judicial Custody as further extension of interim bail on medical ground is not called for.
