AL leaders demand Hasina's release to let her see her ailing husband
Sunday, 29 July 2007
Awami League senior leaders, including Sajeda Chowdhury and Advocate Abdul Matin Khosru, Saturday demanded that AL president Sheikh Hasina be released immediately to allow her to stay beside her ailing husband, reports UNB.
Scientist Dr Wazed Miah, husband of the AL chief, is undergoing treatment at Square Hospital in the city for several complications, including cardiac problems.
"His condition is not good. Sheikh Hasina should be released forthwith to allow her to take care of her husband," Begum Sajeda Chowdhury told reporters after visiting ailing Dr Wazed Miah.
She cautioned that if anything happened to Wazed Miah in absence of Sheikh Hasina, the government would have to take the responsibility.
Former Law Minister Abdul Matin Khosru said although the present government is non-partisan one, it is behaving cruelly.
Dr Wazed, now in his mid-60s, has long been suffering from heart problems and diabetes and high blood pressure.
He was admitted to Lab Aid Specialised Hospital on July 16 with acute chest pain and discharged on July 23. He was admitted to Bangladesh Medical College Hospital again on Wednesday with "hypoglycemia and electrolyte disorder" and then shifted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of Square Hospital at 11pm on Thursday.
