The "sleep 120" does nothing since sftp has no such command, by the way.

I understand we can use MGET to fetch all the files in SFTP location. I am confused on how I can achieve the tracking of the zip files and how to go through each study and fetch files.
What do you mean 'tracking'?
You can examine the contents of zip files with
unzip -l
You should not be using
expect to cram passwords into sftp. You should be using shared keys. That way sftp will work as intended with no need to force-feed it via expect.

libssh2_sftp_close_handle
libssh2_sftp_close_handle(3) libssh2 manual libssh2_sftp_close_handle(3)
NAME
libssh2_sftp_close_handle - close filehandle
SYNOPSIS
#include <libssh2.h> #include <libssh2_sftp.h>
int libssh2_sftp_close_handle(LIBSSH2_SFTP_HANDLE *handle);
int libssh2_sftp_close(LIBSSH2_SFTP_HANDLE *handle);
int libssh2_sftp_closedir(LIBSSH2_SFTP_HANDLE *handle);
DESCRIPTION
handle - SFTP File Handle as returned by libssh2_sftp_open_ex(3) or libssh2_sftp_opendir(3) (which is a macro).
Close an active LIBSSH2_SFTP_HANDLE. Because files and directories share the same underlying storage mechanism these methods may be used
interchangably. libssh2_sftp_close(3) and libssh2_sftp_closedir(3) are macros for libssh2_sftp_close_handle(3).
RETURN VALUE
Return 0 on success or negative on failure. It returns LIBSSH2_ERROR_EAGAIN when it would otherwise block. While LIBSSH2_ERROR_EAGAIN is a
negative number, it isn't really a failure per se.
ERRORS
LIBSSH2_ERROR_ALLOC - An internal memory allocation call failed.
LIBSSH2_ERROR_SOCKET_SEND - Unable to send data on socket.
LIBSSH2_ERROR_SOCKET_TIMEOUT -
LIBSSH2_ERROR_SFTP_PROTOCOL - An invalid SFTP protocol response was received on the socket, or an SFTP operation caused an errorcode to be
returned by the server.
