Furthermore the Congress leader’s lawyer Kapil Sibal told top court: “He doesn’t have a chair in the cell… there is no pillow for the bed, this is causing back pain. There were 2-3 chairs outside where wardens etc would sit and I would also sit. Then these were taken away.” Reportedly Sibal also moved an application on behalf of chidambaram seeking regular medical check-up and adequate supplementary diet during judicial custody in Tihar Jail and he requested the court to allow chidambaram to be medically examined in All india Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS).



Moreover Sibal said that the 73 year old Congress leader is suffering from various ailments like coronary artery disease, hypertension, and impaired glycemia and has lost weight during the custody. Perhaps the court in its order said that the request for chair and pillow shall be considered by the jail superintendent favorably ‘considering the issue of back pain’.
