Hasina flies to US tomorrow for follow-up treatment
Former prime minister and Awami League (AL) President Sheikh Hasina will arrive in Washington DC tomorrow for the follow-up treatment of her eye and ear.
The AL president's aide and AL leader Abdus Sobhan told ANA, a US-based news agency, from Canada over phone yesterday.
Hasina has some appointments with John Hopkins Hospital in Virginia for her treatment on September 3 and 5, he said, adding that Sheikh Hasina will also undergo a heart check-up in the hospital.
After completing the tests and follow-ups and in line with the recommendation of the government, the party chief will return home, the AL leader said.
It may be mentioned that this would be the third follow-up treatment of Hasina after her release from the jail.
She is now in full rest at the house of her daughter Saima Wazed Putul in Toronto.
Meanwhile, US unit of AL has raised a question over the impartiality of the caretaker government centring the recent bail granted to Tarique Rahman, senior joint secretary general of BNP, who, they called, is a 'great thief' and a 'great terrorist'.
US AL unit Vice President M Fazlur Rahman, Organising Secretary Nizam Chowdhury, New York AL Convener Abul Kashem and Member Secretary Khairuzzaman Khasru said this in a joint statement.
