BNP Chairperson and former Prime Minister Khaleda Zia was admitted to Evercare Hospital in the capital on Sunday night for a routine health check-up.
“Madam was admitted to Evercare Hospital around 8:15 pm for some medical tests, following the advice of her medical board. She is there in a private cabin,” said her personal doctor Professor AZM Zahid Hossain.
He said the next course of Khaled’s treatment will be determined after reviewing test reports by the medical board.
Khaleda, 80, has been suffering from various health issues for several years, including liver, kidney, heart, arthritis, diabetes, lung and eye problems.
She has been receiving treatment at her Gulshan residence under the supervision of a specialised medical board, which includes doctors from Evercare Hospital as well as her personal medical team.
Her last visit to Evercare Hospital was on 15 October, when she underwent several medical tests over one day.
