[Python] SSH Library Robot framework - remote python script execution

I am using Robot Framework SSH Library - to perform the following operations.

1. Connect to a remote machine via SSH
2. Copy a python file into the remote machine. [The python file obtains the process with the ID specified]
3. Run the python file using the execute command.

The issue I am facing is - Execute Command of robot framework does not return a result instead hangs. when I execute the python script via cmd-> ssh@remoteserver-> execute script - it executes perfectly fine.

below is the source code of the python file and robot framework code.

command = f"Get-Process -Id {process_id} > {output_file}"
result = subprocess.run(["powershell", "-Command", command], capture_output=True, text=True)



I copy the python file from local to remote server via SSH Put File - all this works fine. only the execute command hangs!

${status}= Execute Command py ${remote_file_full_path} --id 11064 --output C:\\Sandeep\\process_output.txt


Any idea how to resolve the same?
