Medical board formed for treatment of 4 plane crash survivors

Staff Correspondent: A 13-member medical board has been formed to ensure better treatment for the four Bangladeshi survivors of the US-Bangla airlines’ aircraft that crashed in Nepal’s Kathmandu.

Samanta Lal Sen, national coordinator of burn units across the country, is leading the medical team.

While speaking at a press conference held at the hospital’s main building on Saturday noon, Samanta Lal Sen said the medical will monitor the physical conditions of the four survivors -- Shahreen Ahmed, Mehedi Hasan and his wife Saiyada Kamrunnahar Shwarna and Almunnahar Annie—from tomorrow (Sunday).

On March 12, the crash in Nepal’s Tribhuvan International Airport (TIA) left 51 dead. It slammed on an empty field and burst into flames. At least 26 Bangladeshis were among the dead.
