Don't spread unverified news on Dr M's health, says Annuar


KUALA LUMPUR: The public is urged not to spread any news regarding the health of Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad unless it is from official sources such as his family or the hospital.

Communications and Multimedia Minister Tan Sri Annuar Musa (pic) asked the public to pray for the former prime minister’s speedy recovery.

"Please respect the current situation of Tun Dr Mahathir’s family,” he said in a Twitter post on Sunday (Jan 23).

Since Saturday (Jan 22), media practitioners have gathered outside the National Heart Institute (IJN) here to get the latest developments on Dr Mahathir’s health.

However, the Langkawi MP’s daughter Datin Paduka Marina said on Saturday (Jan 22) that her father was in stable condition and responding well to follow-up treatment at IJN.

Prior to this, Dr Mahathir was admitted to IJN on Jan 7 and discharged on Jan 13 after undergoing an elective medical procedure on Jan 8. - Bernama
