Fakhrul off to Singapore for health check-up
Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir
Dhaka, Apr 06 - BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir and his wife Rahat Ara Begum left Dhaka for Singapore on Sunday morning for health checkup.
They left Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport by a Biman Bangladesh Airlines flight around 8:30 am, said BNP media wing member Sayrul Kabir Khan.
"Sir and Bhabi have left for Singapore for a health check-up. They will go to some specialist doctors at a clinic in Singapore. Appointments with doctors have already been made,” he said.
The BNP secretary general will return home after a week.
On September 1, 2024 Mirza Fakhrul Islam, 77, also went to Singapore for medical treatment.
Mirza Fakhrul's health issues date back to 2015 when an internal carotid artery problem was detected during his imprisonment in a political case.
He travelled to Singapore to receive treatment after his release from jail. Since then, he has travelled to Singapore each year for follow-up treatment. - UNB
