EO detainee Dr Michael Jeyakumar in IJN

Niece says police are not allowing family members to visit him. Only his wife has been allowed so far.

UPDATED

KUALA LUMPUR: PSM’s Sungai Siput MP Dr D Michael Jeyakumar, presently detained without trial under the Emergency Ordinance 1969, has been admitted to the National Heart Institute (IJN) here for heartbeat abnormality.

He is said to be in a stable condition but his family members are complaining that they are not being allowed to visit him. Only Jeyakumar’s wife has been allowed to visit him so far.

His admission to the IJN was confirmed by his niece Sangeetha Jayakumar, and her father Selangor exco member Dr Xavier Jayakumar.

Earlier today she tweeted:

“Dr Kumar admitted in IJN. Admitted for palpitations. Police refusing to allow family to visit.”

PKR’s Xavier Jayakumar, when contacted, said Jeyakumar was admitted to the IJN on Friday.

“He was admitted to the hospital day before yesterday in the afternoon.

“No one apart from his wife has been allowed to visit him,” said Jayakumar, who is also the parliamentarian’s brother-in-law.

“He is in a stable condition,” he said.

Jeyakumar and five other PSM activists were detained following their involvement in PSM’s ‘Udahlah Bersaralah BN’ campaign.

They were first arrested in Penang on June 26 for allegedly waging war against the King. They were then released and rearrested on July 2 under Emergency Ordinance 1969 for being a national threat.

Jeyakumar was admitted to a hospital in Penang over his heart condition right after his first arrest.
