How did Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan died?

The Pakistani devotional singer Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, who collaborated with Western musicians including Eddie Vedder, and Peter Gabriel, and progressive guitarist and producer Michael Brook, passed away on Saturday at the age of 48.

Khan had flown from his home country of Pakistan to London for treatment of liver and renal issues; but, after arriving, he was transported to Cromwell Hospital, where he passed away from a deadly heart attack.

According to a report in the London Daily Telegraph, Khan’s death was attributed by hospital staff to his treatment with contaminated dialysis equipment in Pakistan, where they claim he developed hepatitis.

According to a representative for his American Recordings company, the artist, who according to several stories weighed over 300 pounds, had been critically unwell for several months.
