Satyendar Jain Admitted to ICU in Delhi Hospital
Guwahati: Satyendar Jain, the leader of the jailed Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), who is now being held at Tihar Jail in connection with an alleged money laundering case, has been admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) at Lok Nayak (LNJP) Hospital in Delhi after tripping on Thursday morning.
According to reports, Jain was taken to Deen Dayal Hospital this morning after feeling lightheaded and falling in the Tihar Jail toilet, but he was later moved to LNJP hospital for further care. He is receiving oxygen assistance right now.
“This morning around 6 am, under trial prisoner (UTP) Dr Satyendar Jain slipped and fell in the bathroom of the Medical Inspection (MI) room of the hospital of Central Jail (CJ-7), where he was kept under observation for general weakness,” an official statement from the prison officials reads.
“He was further referred to DDU Hospital as he complained about back, left leg and shoulder pain,” it added.
It should be noted that Jain was detained by the court after being arrested in May 2022 by the Enforcement Directorate for violating the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA).
Jain is accused of acquiring movable property between February 14, 2015 and May 31, 2017, which he was unable to satisfactorily account for.
