Sindh Senior Minister Sharjeel Memon on Wednesday refuted the reports relating to President Asif Ali Zardari’s health and said that his health was improving.
In a statement, Memon said that reports suggesting that President Zardari was being shifted to Dubai for medical treatment were not true and that the latter would soon recover completely.
The minister’s clarification came after President Zardari was shifted to a private hospital in Karachi from Nawabshah — after experiencing health issues.
With the politician undergoing medical tests at the facility, hospital sources say that he has been admitted due to infection and fever.
Earlier, Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif had enquired about the health of President Zardari via a telephone call.
The premier prayed for the early recovery of the president, adding that prayers of the entire nation were with the president.
Meanwhile, Sindh Governor Kamran Tessori had also contacted President Zardari’s physician Dr Asim Hussain to inquire about the head of state’s health and wish him well.
