As per the conditions put forth by the HC, Sarathi cannot visit Barimula or Kendrapara. He is not allowed to take out a procession after being released from the jail, the court ordered. Besides, Sarathi has to inform the investigating officer (IO) where he is staying.

Meanwhile, there is a remote chance that Sarathi will be freed from the Choudwar Circle jail, where he is lodged currently, as one more case is still sub judice.
