SISULU OUT OF CLINIC

AFRICAN National Congress stalwart Walter Sisulu was released from hospital on Friday after treatment for chest pains, high blood pressure and blood sugar problems.The 86-year-old Sisulu was admitted to hospital on Sunday for the the second time in a week amid growing concern for his health.A Morningside Clinic spokesperson said on Friday he is “doing well” and has been discharged.It is not clear whether Sisulu will return home. The ANC said last week Sisulu had to be moved to another residence following concerns that constant attention from the media and the public was making it impossible for him to rest.
