Former Mayor of undivided Dhaka City Corporation and BNP Vice-chairman Sadeque Hossain Khoka is in very critical condition and now fighting for life at the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in Manhattan, New York.

Khoka’s elder son Ishrak Hossain told the risingbd around 10.00am on Sunday.

“My father is now at the intensive care unit of the hospital where he has been kept alive proving high levels of oxygen,” he said.

Engineer Ishrak Hossain has also sought doa from countrymen for early recovery of his critically ill father.

Khoka is currently undergoing treatment at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York, USA.

Khoka was arrested days before the January-5 national election in 2014.

Released on bail from jail, he was admitted to Birdem Hospital in the capital, but doctors could not exactly detect his health problem.

Later, he went to the USA on May 14, 2014 and has been receiving treatment there since then.
