Mirza Abbas on the mend
The condition of BNP Standing Committee member Mirza Abbas, now undergoing treatment at Singapore General Hospital, has improved further.
“He (Abbas) is being treated in a cabin. His condition is better than before,” said BNP leader’s Assistant Private Secretary Mizanur Rahman Sohel.
He said Abbas is receiving therapy every day and remains under full care of doctors.
Meanwhile, BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir visited him at the hospital on Thursday afternoon along with his wife Rahat Ara Begum.
They stayed there for some time and enquired after Abbas’ health condition, Sohel said.
He also said Fakhrul and BNP Standing Committee member Nazrul Islam Khan are currently in Singapore.
Nazrul Islam Khan also visited Abbas at the hospital a few days ago, Sohel said.
On March 15, Abbas was taken to Singapore General Hospital by an air ambulance from a hospital in Dhaka.
Earlier, on March 11, he was admitted to Evercare Hospital in the capital after he suddenly lost consciousness at his Shahjahanpur residence during iftar in Ramadan.
A medical board was formed under leading neurologists in the country, and following their decision, he underwent brain surgery. He was then shifted to Singapore within 72 hours for advanced treatment, reports UNB.
