Rabat – Dounia Tounsi, the daughter of the prominent Moroccan comedian, Abderrahim Tounsi, better known as “Abderraouf,” posted on her Instagram account a photo with her father smiling on Sunday.
The comedian has been ill for several days and was admitted to the Rabat Military Hospital to be treated for severe breathing problems.
King Mohammed VI personally took charge of Abderraouf’s hospitalization expenses.
“Since he was admitted to the military hospital of Rabat, my father is getting better and better. Thanks to the care of His Majesty and the efforts of the medical caregiver, he is doing much better,” Hissane Tounsi, the eldest son of the comedian told Moroccan news outlet, le360.
However, following doctors’ advice, only members of Abderraouf’s family are allowed to access his room.
“My father came out of a critical condition after he was admitted to the Rabat Military Hospital. He can talk to us now. He also wishes to reiterate his thanks to His Majesty for his solicitude and thanks his fans and all the people who supported him during this impasse,” Tounsi added.
