Kushtia-2 MP sustains injuries while crossing road in front of Parliament

Kushtia-2 constituency lawmaker Kamarul Arefin sustained injuries after being hit by a CNG-run autorickshaw while crossing the road in front of the National Parliament on Monday night.
 
The incident happened when the lawmaker and his personal assistant were crossing the road near the Bakul Tola gate of the parliament building around 9pm on Wednesday.

Following the accident, the lawmaker was initially taken to the Parliament medical centre and later transferred to Dhaka Medical College Hospital around midnight. He underwent a CT scan of his head and X-rays of his hands and feet. He received three stitches on his right elbow, Abdulah Al, the lawmaker's personal assistant, said.

Kamarul was discharged from the hospital after his CT scan and X-ray reports returned good.

“I sustained some minor injuries in the incident, but I am doing better now and resting at home,” the lawmaker said.
