❐ Staff Reporter

Various rumors about the death of Mirza Abbas, political advisor to Prime Minister Tarique Rahman and member of the BNP standing committee, have been spreading on various online platforms on social media. Some are sharing various fake photo cards. Confusion has spread on the internet about this.

However, Mirza Abbas’s family has expressed their anger and requested not to spread false information. His relatives have prayed for the well-being of this senior BNP leader.

BNP activists claim that Jamaat-Shibir and NCP are involved in spreading these rumors.

Doctors said that Mirza Abbas did not have any bleeding in his brain. However, an infection has been detected in his body. After the successful surgery, he is currently under special observation. Preparations are also underway to take him abroad for better treatment.

Today, Saturday, March 14, Professor Dr. Shahabuddin Talukder, a specialist physician at Evercare Hospital in the capital, informed the media about Mirza Abbas’s latest physical condition.

He said, “Mirza Abbas’s surgery was completed successfully. However, he has an infection in his body. At this moment, whether it will be possible to take him abroad or not depends on the improvement of his physical condition.”

According to BNP media cell sources, his CT scan report is satisfactory. However, the country currently does not have adequate facilities for the kind of specialized support and intensive monitoring that is needed.

For this reason, his family and team are trying to quickly take him abroad for better treatment.

Earlier, last Wednesday, he was admitted to Evercare Hospital in the capital after suddenly falling ill and losing consciousness during Iftar. He has been undergoing treatment there since then.

Wishing Mirza Abbas a speedy recovery, his family and party have sought prayers from the countrymen.
