The main opposition Bangladesh Nationalist Party chairperson, Begum Khaleda Zia, was taken back to the coronary care unit of the Evercare Hospital in Dhaka as her health condition deteriorated early Sunday.
Speaking to the media early Sunday, Khaleda Zia’s personal physician, AZM Zahid Hossain, said that due to the deterioration in her condition, she was urgently admitted to the hospital.
He said that a medical board, comprising specialists, was overseeing her treatment.
At about 1:30am on Sunday, doctors did some urgent tests due to the deterioration of Khaleda Zia’s physical condition and decided to take her to the hospital.
Khaleda Zia’s health condition also turned critical on Wednesday, prompting the medical board members to visit her at Gulshan house and conduct some tests.
On March 13, Khaleda’s health was examined at Evercare Hospital while she was undergoing treatment at the health facility.
Khaleda Zia was admitted to Evercare Hospital on August 9 last year.
BNP Chairperson returned to Gulshan’s home on January 11 after more than five months of treatment.
At that time, her family appealed to the government to take the former PM abroad for better treatment, but to no avail.
