On completion of MBA in finance and banking from Chittagong University, the 26-year-old brilliant youth joined the Jubilee Road Branch of AB Bank as a trainee officer last month when the deadly disease was detected in him.

Rahadh, son of SM Abu Taleb of Anderkilla Nazir Ahmed Chowdhury lane, needs a bone-marrow transplantation which is not performed in the country.
