Concerns mount over Mandela's health

June 09, 2013 15:20

Former South African President Nelson Mandela has spent a second day in hospital in a "serious but stable" condition with a renewed lung infection that has triggered worldwide concern for the anti-apartheid icon.

Doctors say there has been little change in the condition of the 94-year-old leader, and he continues to be in a serious but stable state.

Mandela was on Saturday rushed to a Pretoria hospital, after his health took a turn for the worse at his Johannesburg home, where he was recovering from a lung infection after being released from hospital on April 6.

This is Mandela's third hospital visit in seven months.
