BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir went to Bangkok, Thailand for emergency eye treatment early Tuesday.
Fakhrul, along with his wife Rahat Ara Begum, left Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport for Bangkok at about 2:45AM on a Thai Airways flight.
BNP media cell member Sayrul Kabir Khan confirmed this.
He said the BNP leader noticed a problem with his eyes on Monday morning and immediately visited United Hospital in Gulshan for treatment. After examination, doctors at the hospital advised that surgery on the retina of one of his eyes is urgently required.
“Following the doctors’ advice, an appointment was promptly made at Rutnin Eye Hospital in Bangkok for the necessary treatment,” Sayrul Kabir added.
On behalf of Fakhrul’s family members, Sayrul urged the country’s people to pray for the speedy recovery of the BNP Secretary General.
