He said that he remained under-treatment in a hospital of Islamabad, but then ultimately decided to go for a transplant, his brother donated his kidney to him. Upon being revived he returned to Faisalabad, but unfortunately the donated kidney could not survive for long and after some time he again went to the stage of dialysis and has been undergoing it ever since.
