These terms given by the Supreme Court have been accepted by his lawyer Kapil Sibal. Kapil Sibal had said in favor of Kappan in the court that his mother's health was very bad. She cannot even speak on video conferencing anymore. The jail in which he is lodged tried to get a video call from the authority, but his mother could not speak. However, in favor of the UP government in court, Solicitor General Tushar Mehta opposed Bell's demand. He said that the judicial process is being disrupted by talking about the health of the mother.
