The vice chancellor of the university hospital formed the two separate boards Wednesday, to check on the health conditions of Khaleda Zia's two ailing sons. Both medical boards, led by head of the BSMMU cardiology department Prof KMHS Sirajul Haque, submitted their reports the same day. Tarique Rahman and Coco have been behind bars since their arrests last year, on March 8 and September 3, respectively.
