Passenger shifted from Lahore Airport to National Hospital & Medical Centre in Lahore because his condition did not improve at the airport.

Probably the aircraft was waiting for passenger's condition to improve at the airport to carry him to Moscow.

I think now the aircraft will depart from Lahore to resume flight to Moscow in case the crew has not crossed flight and duty limitation.

The fifty-six year old male passenger feeling better now and has been shifted from emergency to a room at National Hospital & Medical Centre in Lahore.

Shaheen Air Port Services (SAPS) given as address for the patient in the hospital so probably SAPS handled Aeroflot flight at Lahore Airport.
