David Cameron likely to visit Dhaka tomorrow

Former British Prime Minister David Cameron is likely to be in Dhaka on a very brief visit tomorrow.

Cameron, who is coming at the invitation of an NGO, will leave Dhaka on Thursday after his less than 24-hour stay here, foreign ministry sources said.

His visit was originally planned for four days, but was cut short apparently due to the upcoming UK elections slated for June 8.

British Prime Minister Theresa May has called the election, as polls indicate she could win a huge Tory majority in parliament.

During his brief visit, Cameron, who was PM from 2010-2016, will also meet PM Sheikh Hasina.
