Download PDF Detained Awami League presidium member and former home minister Mohammad Nasim was released on Friday on a High Court bail two days after jail authorities received the court order.
Family sources say Nasim, who was sentenced to 13 years’ imprisonment by a special court for amassing illegal wealth, would be sent to Singapore for treatment as early as possible.
He is also accused in another corruption case in connection with illegal installation of telephone lines by Worldtel Holdings Ltd.
The sources say they would apply to the Singapore embassy today for visa of Nasim and his family members.
They add he would be admitted to Mount Elizabeth Hospital soon after the visas are approved.
Nasim has been undergoing treatment at LabAid Hospital since June 24 this year after suffering from brain haemorrhage.
He was supposed to be released on Thursday afternoon, but the officials of the Dhaka Central Jail did not release him saying they would verify the papers sent by the HC.
