Bangladesh Nationalist Party acting chairman Tarique Rahman received his wife Zubaida Rahman upon her arrival at London airport.

The BNP sources said Zubaida will celebrate Eid-ul-Azha with her family there.


Earlier, after staying in the country for a month, she left for London on a flight of Qatar Airlines from Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport at 10:55 am on Thursday (BST).

The BNP chairperson鈥檚 security officer Brigadier General (retd) AKM Shamsul Islam Shams, Dhaka Division鈥檚 Assistant Organizing Secretary Nazrul Islam Azad, Tarique Rahman鈥檚 former personal assistant Mia Nur Uddin Ahmed Apu and BNP Media Cell member Atiqur Rahman Rumon bid farewell to Zubaida Rahman at the airport.

After four months of advanced treatment in London, BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia returned to the country on May 6 with her two daughters-in-law Zubaida Rahman and Syeda Shamila Rahman (late Arafat Rahman Koko鈥檚 wife).

Tarique Rahman, who fell ill after being tortured in prison during the 11-11 government, went to London for better treatment on bail from the Supreme Court, accompanied by his wife Zubaida Rahman and daughter Zaima Rahman.

After that, various false cases were filed against Tarique Rahman and Zubaida Rahman during the Awami League government.
