New Delhi: The Delhi High Court on Tuesday
restrained former Union Minister George Fernandes wife Leila
Kabir from taking him anywhere outside the city.
Justice V K Shali passed the order on a suit filed by
the brothers of Fernandes seeking to restrain both Kabir and
her son Sean from taking Fernandes outside the capital.
The brothers -Richard and Machael Fernandes also
sought unfettered access to their ailing brother who is
currently with Kabir and is suffering from advanced
Alzheimer`s disease.
It said the Court rejected the argument of Kabir`s
counsel that in view of his failing health, the 78-year old
socialist leader was required to be taken to the US for
treatment.
The next day date of hearing has been fixed for April
26.
Richard had recently complained to the Delhi
Police Commissioner about the alleged "illegal and high
handed" behaviour of the security personnel provided to the
ailing leader.
