Veteran Malaysian statesman and former Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad has been hospitalized after falling at his home, his aide told Anadolu.
Sufi Yusoff said that while a medical report is still awaited, doctors "suspect a fracture in the hip" of the 100-year-old politician.
He is admitted to the National Heart Institute (IJN) in the capital, Kuala Lumpur.
"I cannot comment much as we are waiting for a report from the medical team," Yusoff said over the phone.
Mahathir, who turned 100 last July, fell inside his home early Tuesday morning at around 7:40 a.m. (0340GMT), his aide said.
Yusoff added that the medical report is expected to be delivered by late Tuesday local time.
Mahathir has a history of medical procedures, including heart bypass surgeries.
Last July, he was admitted to the IJN after experiencing fatigue during a picnic in Putrajaya.
