CHENNAI: Former Pakistan cricket captain Wasim Akram's wife is in a critical condition at a hospital here where she was rushed on Tuesday after developing an "emergency situation" in an air ambulance during its scheduled refuelling at the Chennai airport.
Huma was admitted to the Apollo Hospitals here on advice from doctors on board the Singapore-bound air ambulance, hospital and airport sources said.
"She is receiving necessary intensive medical attention," the hospital said in a statement.
Hospital sources said Huma suffered a multiple organ failure and she was put on ventilator support.
Her pulse rate was picking up and vital parameters were better, but her condition continued to be critical, the sources said.
She was originally scheduled to receive treatment in Singapore.
Earlier, airport officials had said that the flight made an unscheduled landing on a request from the pilot.
Former cricketer Ravi Shastri, here to attend the wedding of the son of National Selection Committee Chairman K Srikkant, rushed to the hospital soon after hearing the news about Huma.
Shastri, a TV co-commentator with Akram, spent nearly two hours with him and his family at the hospital, sources added.
I wish her fast recovery.
