Quader moves to rented house after release from hospital

Senior Correspondent: Road Transport and Bridges Minister Obaidul Quader was released from the Mount Elizabeth Hospital in Singapore on Friday afternoon.

He, however, cannot return home right now for further necessary treatment. So, he moved to a rented house there.

“The health condition of the minister is better now. He was released from the Singapore hospital at 3:00pm local time (1:00pm Bangladesh time). Then he was taken to a rented house from where he’ll take necessary treatment,” Professor Dr Abu Nasar Rizvi, director of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU) told this media.

On March 26, Quader, also the general secretary of ruling Awami League, was moved to a cabin from the intensive care unit of the hospital after his condition improved.

The minister underwent a bypass surgery on March 20.

He was initially admitted to Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU) on March 3 following breathing complications. Later, tests revealed three blockages in his coronary artery. Quader was flown to Singapore on March 4 for better treatment.
