Earlier, on Tuesday, the authorities of the Evercare Hospital, where Moudud was admitted last week, formed a six-member medical board to review his condition and provide him better treatment.
Moudud has been kept at the Coronary Care Unit (CCU) of the hospital under the close observation of the doctors.

He said the BNP leader’s condition worsened on Tuesday as he suffered a mild stroke.
On December 29, Moudud Ahmed was admitted to the hospital as he fell ill due to low level of haemoglobin.
