New Delhi, May 22
Jailed AAP leader and former Delhi minister Satyendar Jain was on Monday examined by doctors at the Safdarjung Hospital here for a spine problem, an official said.
Lodged at Delhi's Tihar Jail since his arrest in connection with a money-laundering case last year, Jain was taken to the Deen Dayal Upadhyaya Hospital on Saturday but as he wanted a second opinion, he was taken to the Safdarjung Hospital, a senior jail official said.
"Jain visited the neurosurgery OPD in the morning and after being examined by the doctors there, he left. He was accompanied by police," said a spokesperson of the Safdarjung Hospital.
Jain was arrested by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) on May 31, 2022, in a money-laundering case.
Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal wished his former cabinet colleague a speedy recovery.
