Abdul Halim told Bernama via an SMS message that he was admitted yesterday after he had gone to the hospital for a routine medical check-up, and denied that he has been warded for a heart ailment.

"I was admitted to the Perdana (Specialist) Hospital yesterday. I am not ill.

"I came for a medical check-up because I have been working day and night for several weeks."

Abdul Halim said he was touched when the Sultan of Kelantan, Tengku Muhammad Faris Petra, visited him at 11pm yesterday.

Several members of the Kelantan royal household and senior state government officers had also called on him, he said.
