Senior NCP leader Chhagan Bhujbal, granted bail in a money laundering case, was today discharged from the civic-run KEM hospital here where he underwent treatment for nearly a week.
The hospital authorities said they decided to discharge Bhujbal as his medical reports were fine.
However, they did not divulge any other detail about his ailments.
Bhujbal, 70, in jail since March 2016 in connection with the money laundering case, was granted bail on May 4 by the Bombay High Court after it took into consideration his old age and deteriorating health.
He was later admitted to the KEM hospital in Parel area after he was released from the Arthur Road Jail.
Dr Avinash Supe, the dean of KEM Hospital, had then said some of Bhujbal's medical reports were expected and that they would decide on his discharge after taking into account his response to medication.
An official from the hospital today said, "Bhujbal's medical reports were ok, hence we decided to discharge him."
