Devanathan Yadav, managing director of Mylapore Hindu Permanent Fund Nidhi Limited (MHPFNL) – facing a ₹600-crore default case involving 5,000 depositors – to undergo medical treatment at a private hospital for 10 weeks. A Division Bench of Justices G.R. Swaminathan and V. Lakshminarayanan ordered that the prisoner should name three private hospitals where he would prefer to be treated and that the government authorities concerned could choose one of them. It was made clear that he should be shifted to the hospital within a week, as he had to undergo two surgeries: one on his knee and another on the spine.
