IGP recovering well and jogging at hospital
Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Ismail Omar, who was warded on Friday, is recovering well.
Deputy Inspector-General of Police Datuk Khalid Abu Bakar, who disclosed this yesterday, said the IGP needed a good rest.
“He has gone through all the necessary checks but nothing is wrong with him. In fact, he went for a jog around the hospital this morning,’’ he told reporters at the Selangor police contingent headquarters yesterday.
“Actually there was no need for Ismail to be warded. I was the one who told the doctor to make the boss stay there so that he could rest,” he said.
Khalid said Ismail had given him a lot of instructions through SMS.
Ismail was admitted to Pantai Hospital in Kuala Lumpur after he was reported to be feeling unwell while attending the monthly assembly in Bukit Aman.
