KARACHI: Former president Asif Ali Zardari on Thursday visited a private hospital for the treatment of the backache he has been suffering from, sources in the hospital and the Pakistan Peoples Party said.

The sources in the Dr Ziauddin Hospital said Mr Zardari arrived there in the afternoon and left after a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan half an hour later.

The party sources quoted hospital officials as saying that those were routine tests for the PPP co-chairperson, who was otherwise in good health.
