Asif Ali Zardari is healthy after medical treatment: Nasir Hussain Shah

KARACHI, Sep 28 (SABAH): Sindh Minister for Local Government Syed Nasir Hussain Shah on Wednesday dismissed reports about the infirmity of former president and PPP co-chairperson Asif Ali Zardari, saying “he is very healthy and will be back to Bilawal House within a couple of days.”

A number of TV channels reported on Tuesday night that Zardari had been admitted to a private hospital in Karachi due to the deterioration of his health, while his medical tests were being conducted, he said. 

However, in response to a question about the PPP leader’s health during a press conference in Karachi on Wednesday, Shah said Zardari underwent a “medical procedure” which according to him was not a unique occurrence.

He dismissed the reports of the severity of Zardari’s health as “rumours”, insisting that “rumours are rumours after all”.
