KUALA LUMPUR: The injury Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad suffered is serious but not life threatening, says his daughter Datin Paduka Marina Mahathir.
Speaking to Bernama, Marina said her father is doing well given his age.
"It is serious but not dangerous. For his age, everything is relative… he's fine.
"We will release a fuller statement with more details later. We have to get all the terms right," she said at the National Heart Institute (IJN) lobby on Tuesday (Jan 6).
Dr Mahathir was admitted to IJN at about 9.30am on Tuesday after a fall at his residence.
His press secretary Sufi Yusoff, told the media via WhatsApp that the 100-year-old statesman was taken to IJN by ambulance and was conscious.
The former prime minister was previously treated at IJN on July 13, 2025, for fatigue but was discharged on the same day. – Bernama
