Sonam Wangchuk's Life Would Be At Risk If Shifted: Sources On Wife's Plea
The wife of climate activist Sonam Wangchuk has expressed significant concern over his health while in police custody at Safdarjung Hospital. She has formally requested his transfer to a private medical facility, citing a complete loss of faith in the current government-run treatment.
Sonam Wangchuk's wife has voiced serious alarm regarding the activist's well-being following his detention and subsequent admission to Safdarjung Hospital. In a public plea, she stated that she has lost confidence in the medical care being provided at the state-run facility and fears for his safety.
The family has requested that Mr. Wangchuk be moved to a private hospital where they believe his health needs can be better addressed. Sources close to the family suggest that remaining in the current facility or being shifted under specific government directives could pose a risk to his life.
Mr. Wangchuk was detained earlier this week while leading a march to the national capital to demand constitutional safeguards for Ladakh. His health reportedly deteriorated during his period of detention, leading to his hospitalization under police supervision.
The activist’s legal team and family continue to push for his release and better medical oversight, emphasizing the non-violent nature of his protest and his fragile physical condition. Source: NDTV
