Morocco's King Mohammed VI undergoes successful heart surgery

Rabat: Morocco's King Mohammed VI underwent successful heart surgery in France on Monday, state news agency MAP said.
The 54-year old king was treated at a Paris clinic after suffering from a "heart rhythm disorder" on January 20, the agency said, adding he had been diagnosed with an "atrial flutter".
The surgery normalised the heart rhythm, and the king would be able to resume his duties without any restrictions, MAP said.
The king took office in 1999 after his father, Hassan II, died of a heart attack.
