This was confirmed on Friday night (16 January) by the party’s central committee member A. Razzak Talukder Sajib.

He said Manna felt chest pain at around 11pm and was taken to Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU), popularly known as PG Hospital, for treatment.

Doctors are currently conducting medical examinations, he said, adding that the exact cause of the chest pain will be determined once the test reports are available.
