He said Ibrahim, 57 (picture), who is president of Perkasa, was admitted to the hospital yesterday and was in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU).
“His condition is stable and he is scheduled to undergo heart surgery on Monday,” he said when contacted today.
Abdul Rahman said the hospital only allowed Ibrahim’s wife and family members to visit him.
He said Ibrahim had complained of being unwell over the past three weeks and went to the hospital for a check-up yesterday.
Three days ago, the Kelantan royal palace stripped Ibrahim of his datukship.
“After the examination, the doctor advised him to undergo surgery immediately,” he said.
Abdul Rahman said that even after being informed of his health condition, Ibrahim attended parliament yesterday to follow the tabling of Budget 2011 by Prime Minister Najib Razak.
He said Ibrahim was scheduled to deliver a speech at the Nusantara gathering of Malaysian Malays and Indonesians living in Malaysia, at the Sultan Sulaiman Club in Kampung Baru this evening.
In view of Ibrahim’s health condition, Perkasa would hold prayers at the surau of the De Palma Ampang Hotel at 6.30pm tomorrow, he said.
