Eman Ahmed, called the world’s heaviest woman, has died of numerous conditions like heart diseases and kidney dysfunction. She passed away on Monday morning at 4:35am, reports Khaleej Times.

The report says she died of “underlying comorbid conditions, including heart disease and kidney dysfunction.”

A resident of Egypt, Eman weighed 504 kg when she was brought to Mumbai’s Saifee Hospital in February for a weight-loss surgery. She lost over 200 kgs after the surgery.

After spending three months in Mumbai, Eman was transferred to Burjeel Hospital in Abu Dhabi on May 4 where her treatment had continued. The move to shift her came after Eman’s sister claimed that Eman wasn’t getting proper care in Mumbai’s Saifee Hospital.
