If you must know, we have done COVID-19 test 15 times, each time he felt we had travelled and mingled with many people and could be vulnerable even though he always wore his face mask, but he has been certified negative 15 times.

“Yes he is abroad. Not in France, but in London resting. So you can see the falsity in that information you talked about. Thank you”, Rahman said in response to the report that his principal is “critically sick” and has been flown abroad for treatment.
