On September 1, 2024 Mirza Fakhrul Islam, 77, also went to Singapore for medical treatment.
Mirza Fakhrul's health issues date back to 2015 when an internal carotid artery problem was detected during his imprisonment in a political case.
He travelled to Singapore to receive treatment after his release from jail. Since then, he has travelled to Singapore each year for follow-up treatment.
