Ferdousi Priyabhashini’s condition has not improved and doctors are saying they need to observe her for at least 12 hours to ascertain her condition.

The 70-year-old sculptor and freedom fighter has not gained consciousness and is under treatment at coronary care unit (CCU) of Labaid Hospital in Dhaka.

Her condition has not improved and neither has it deteriorated, Saiful Islam Lelnin, assistant general manager of the hospital, told The Daily Star this afternoon.

The 10-member board that is overseeing her treatments is observing her and they cannot “say anything for sure” before 12 hours, he said quoting doctors of the board.

However, it has been known from doctors that she is suffering from multiple complications including diabetes, high blood pressure and heart disease.

Priyabhashini fell over in her Gulshan residence and went into a shock yesterday afternoon. She was rushed to Labaid Hospital immediately and has been there since.
