Saudi King Hospitalised for Dementia.

Informed sources told Arabic language al-Ahd news agency that King Salman bin Abdulaziz is now in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) section of King Faisal Specialist Hospital in the Saudi capital.

The sources also said that given the Saudi king's unstable and aggravating health conditions, officials have ceased plans to transfer him to U.S. hospitals.

King Salman, 80, is thought to have Alzheimer’s or dementia and the government is practically administered by his Crown Prince Muhammad bin Nayef.

According to witnesses, his exact state of dementia is a source of speculation but he is known to have held cogent conversations as recently as last October.

He also forgets what he said minutes ago, or faces he has known all his life.

Sources close to the Saudi monarchy revealed, earlier this year, that the number of hospital visits by King Salman, in the last few months, has increased and that he did not walk around as he did before.
