Former BBC journalist, Farida Rustamova, also confirming the claim on Twitter said she was aware of Putin using a 'special private bathroom' sometime on a visit to Vienna.

This is allegedly done to ensure foreign powers don't lay their hands on pressing information about Putin's health or potential treatments.
