The court also imposed several other stringent conditions on their bail. <br />'' <br />'' As per the High Court order, the accused doctors can not leave the city without seeking the trial court's permission. It also prohibited them from entering the premises of the civic-run B Y L Nair Hospital, where they and Tadvi worked.<br />'' <br />'' The High Court granted them bail after Special Public Prosecutor Raja Thakre told it that he had no objection to relief since the charge sheet in the case had already been filed.
