Rajya Sabha member Amar Singh, arrested for his alleged involvement in the cash-for-vote scam, was admitted to All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) on Monday night after a rise in creatinine level in his body.
Doctors attending to him at the private ward of AIIMS said that several tests were being conducted on the veteran politician and a clear picture about his health will be available on Wednesday, following which a decision will be taken whether he will remain at the hospital or be sent back to Tihar Jail, where he is under judicial custody.
Meanwhile, an order on the bail plea of Amar Singh will be passed on Thursday, while the AIIMS and Tihar authorities will submit Singh’s current health status on Wednesday.
A team of doctors from GB Pant Hospital and LNJP Hospital had examined Singh on Sunday who then referred him to AIIMS on Monday after they found that creatinine level in his body was more than normal. Amar Singh is admitted in ward no 218 of New Private Ward at AIIMS. As per Amar Singh’s medical record sheet issued by Central Jail on September 9, he complained of vomitting, which was caused due to headache. It also mentioned that there were no past records of abdomen pain, jaundice, or abdomen distension. He was advised neurology consultation for headache and cardiology consultation for hypertension.
