Haughey in hospital after deterioration in health
30/03/2006 - 07:33:41Former Taoiseach Charles Haughey is believed to be in a serious condition in hospital after a deterioration in his health in recent days.
The 80-year-old, who has been suffering from prostate cancer for several years, is believed to have been admitted to the Mater Private Hospital in Dublin on Monday night suffering from dehydration.
Fianna Fáil has confirmed that he is hospital, but has declined to reveal any further details about his illness.
Mr Haughey has been hospitalised on a number of occasions over the past 10 years and his ill health has prevented him from giving evidence to the Moriarty Tribunal, which is investigating his finances.
