“Altaf Hossain has suffered a wound on the left side of his head. His left arm has also been fractured,” said Subrata Saha, a doctor at the emergency unit.
His son Shakil and driver Ohedul are critically injured, he said.
“The MP and the others were headed to Bogra when a Dhaka-bound Surma Enterprise bus had a head-on collision with their microbus at Koddar Mor. The driver lost control of the bus as a wheel on the vehicle exploded,” said OC Aminul.
