BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir left Dhaka for Singapore this morning for medical treatment.
Fakhrul, along with his wife Rahat Ara Begum, left Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport in a Biman Bangladesh Airlines flight around 8:40am, said his personal secretary M Yunus Ali.
He said Fakhrul will receive treatment at Farrer Park Hospital for various complexities.
Once he reaches Singapore, the BNP leader will stay in quarantine as per the rules there and then go to the hospital for treatment, Yunus said.
He, however, could not say when the BNP secretary general will return home.
