Just a week ahead of her release in a disproportionate assets case, former AIADMK leader V K Sasikala on Wednesday admitted to the Government Bowring Hospital after she complained of fever and breathlessness.
Earlier she was treated at the jail hospital but later taken to the Bowring Hospital for a second opinion. She arrived in an ambulance and was taken inside the hospital in a wheelchair, sources added.
The doctors suspect that she may have caught coronavirus since her blood oxygen level was low at the time of admission. However, it is not confirmed yet whether the leader is suffering from the virus.
Sasikala was sentenced to 4 years imprisonment in February 2017 in the Rs 66 crore disproportionate assets case. She is set to be released from Parappana Agrahara Prison on January 27 after paying a Rs 10 crore fine.
