Critically ill Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) leader Makhdoom Amin Fahim arrived at the Jinnah International Airport via an air ambulance late Sunday night, according to a private TV channel. Fahim, diagnosed with cancer, has been in a critical condition for some time. He had undergone lump surgery in Berlin, Germany.
He was to be taken to Boston, United States, but doctors dropped the plan after his condition did not permit. He remained under post-surgery treatment in London until recently.
One of his close friends described his overall condition "not encouraging" but his younger brother, Dr Makhdoom Rafik Zaman, said "he is well".
Fahim, who is in his late 70s, is senior vice chairman of the PPP and member of the National Assembly from Hala (NA-218). He is the spiritual head of the Sarwari Jamaat.
