Apparently there were some complications.
Doctors will continue observing him for 15 days in which time they would expect to see some muscle wastage, serious dehydration,

I am sure that science will be able to prove or disprove this Holy Man due to the media stir that is starting to gather around him.

If the Dr confirms any of these claims, he will only do that to get attention & publicity.

-- But 15 days isn't all that impressive, I suspect I might be able to survive for that long without water if the temperature was cool enough, though I'm not sure. I doubt I could survive more than 20 days though, and I seriously doubt anyone can survive 30 days with no water unless they are in some bizarre state like hibernation or hypothermia, or perhaps breathing air with 100% humidity and absorbing moisture directly from their lungs.
And while it might be possible to inhale water vapor from humid air, there's no way I know of to obtain caloric intake from the air so they'd have to run the test for something like 4 months to see if he could really survive without eating. --

Yes there are hoaxer aplenty, but that doesn't warrant outright dismissal. I, for one, would be interested to see the excuses for halting the testing process and also to see weather a more independent medical body would be allowed to look into this.
