KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 23 (Bernama) -- The Member of Parliament for Bachok, Nasharuddin Mat Isa, 47, was admitted to the National Heart Institute (IJN) here Monday after complaining of a chest pain during the Dewan Rakyat sitting at 11.30 this morning.

The PAS deputy president was rushed to the IJN following a medical examination at the health clinic at Parliament House after he had complained of a chest pain to the Tumpat Member of Parliament from PAS, Datuk Kamaruddin Jaffar.

He was later seen being pushed on a wheelchair, accompanied by Kamaruddin and the Member of Parliament for Pokok Sena, Datuk Mahfuz Omar, at 11.40 am before going to the IJN.
