#SHOWBIZ: XPDC vocalist Ali hospitalised after suffering heart attack, lung complications
KUALA LUMPUR: Veteran singer Ali of popular local heavy metal band XPDC has been admitted to the emergency ward at Sultan Idris Shah Hospital in Serdang due to acute health complications.
Veteran vocalist Ali, lead singer of the heavy metal band XPDC, has been hospitalized in Kuala Lumpur after suffering a heart attack and experiencing complications with his lungs, according to his close friend Fuad Syahrin. Fuad shared a photo of Ali connected to a breathing apparatus, prompting him to contact Ali's son, Wan Aliuddin Aqiel, who informed Fuad that his father was rushed to Serdang Hospital the previous afternoon.
Doctors confirmed the singer's diagnosis, stating that he suffered a heart attack in addition to fluid accumulation in his lungs. Fuad added that Ali remains under close medical observation in the emergency ward. The 58-year-old performer, whose real name is Mohd Ali Ismail, had previously faced a similar medical crisis at the same hospital in late January following his return from the umrah pilgrimage in Makkah.
During that incident, he also experienced a viral infection resulting in fluid buildup in his lungs, necessitating respiratory assistance.
