Advocate and counsel for Pakistan Tehreek e Insaf in the Judicial Commission to probe 2013 rigging, Abdul Hafeez Pirzada, has been reportedly shifted to a hospital in United Kingdom after experiencing health issues.

According to a senior PTI leader, Pirzada had travelled to the UK on July 8 where he underwent surgery to treat gastroenteritis.

He was admitted to an intensive care unit at Berkshire Hospital in Reading, where his condition was described as stable.

Earlier, it was reported that Pirzada suffered a heart attack and his condition was critical.

Pirzada had been hired by the PTI in April 2015 to fight its case before the special judicial commission formed by the government to probe whether the May 2013 elections had been rigged.
