Narada case: Two arrested TMC leaders hospitalised after complaining of breathlessness

Two of the TMC leaders arrested in connection with the Narada case – MLA Madan Mitra and former minister Sovan Chatterjee – were hospitalised on Tuesday (May 18) after they complained of breathlessness.

They were admitted to the state-run SSKM hospital where they have been kept on oxygen support.

This comes a day after they were arrested by the CBI along with two state ministers – Firhad Hakim and Subrata Mukherjee.

“Chatterjee and Mitra complained of breathlessness at around 3 am, following which they were brought to the hospital. Both have been kept on oxygen support at the Woodburn Ward of the SSKM Hospital. They are stable now,” an official was quoted as saying by PTI.

All four leaders were taken to Presidency Correctional Home in Kolkata late on Monday night.

Mukherjee, who fell sick in the correctional home, was also taken to the hospital for a check-up early on Tuesday.
