BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia was admitted to Evercare Hospital in the capital on Tuesday for treatment and some medical tests.

She came out of her rented house ‘Firoza’ at Gulshan by a private car around 3:40 pm and reached the hospital at 4:05 pm.

Later, she was admitted to the hospital as per doctors’ advice.

BNP chairperson's media wing member Shairul Kabir Khan confirmed the matter to Banglanews.

On April 27, Khaleda Zia was admitted to Evercare Hospital with Covid infections. She received treatment there until June 19 for post-Covid complications and some other underlying health problems.

Amid the coronavirus outbreak, the government freed Khaleda Zia from jail for six months through an executive order suspending her sentences on March 25 last year.

On September 19, the government again extended for six more months the suspension of her jail term.

As per the conditions, Khaleda Zia will not be allowed to go abroad for treatment as she will have to stay home and receive treatment here.
