Sunday, 5 July 2015
Claiming that their party joint secretary general Ruhul Kabir Rizvi is seriously ill, BNP demanded on Saturday the government immediately release him on bail considering his deteriorating health condition, reports UNB.
In a statement, party spokesman Asaduzzaman Ripon said: "Imprisoned BNP joint secretary general Ruhul Kabir Rizvi had long been suffering from various diseases. His health condition has turned complicated due to his stay in jail over five months with chronic illness."
He said Rizvi had been suffering from stomach problem since 1984 as he sustained bullet injuries by the then BGB members in his abdomen during the anti-autocracy movement.
