A diplomatic source in Muscat confirmed to AFP reports that Qaboos, who has ruled Oman since overthrowing his father in a bloodless 1970 coup, was suffering from "colon cancer". "The Diwan of Royal Court is ho**ured to reassure the loyal citizens of Oman that His Majesty Sultan Qaboos is in sound health after conducting medical tests, which will continue over the coming period in accordance with a specific medical programme," said the statement. It went on to say that Qaboos "is spending his annual leave at his residence in Germany from where he runs his country's affairs... until such a time that he returns to his dear homeland".
