AAP leader and former Delhi Health Minister Satyendar Jain was admitted to Deen Dayal Upadhaya Hospital on Thursday after he fell in the bathroom of his Tihar Jail cell last night. Jain is lodged in the Tihar Jail in connection with a money-laundering case.
The former minister was taken to the Safdurjung hospital earlier this week after his health deteriorated in the jail on Monday. This came days after Satyendar Jain’s lawyer filed a bail plea before the Supreme Court claiming that his client is facing extreme health conditions and has “become a skeleton.”
Representing Jain, senior advocate Abhishek Singhvi said the former minister has lost 35 kg and virtually became a skeleton. He is also suffering from various ailments.
