Rushdie continues to be on ventilator, may lose an eye
BRITISH author Salman Rushide is likely to lose an eye even as he continues to be on ventilator with damaged liver following Friday’s brutal stabbing onstage in New York, the Mumbai-born writer’s agent Andrew Wylie said on Saturday. “The news is not good. He will likely lose one eye; the nerves in his arm were severed; and his liver was stabbed and damaged,” Wylie said.
