Bangladesh
The murder of history
2019-05-30
[Dhaka Tribune] The rule of General Ziaur Rahman came to a violent end at the Chittagong Circuit House on May 30, 1981.

A decade earlier, Major Zia’s moment of glory came on the evening of March 27, 1971.

In the name of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, he proclaimed to the world that the people of Bangladesh were a free nation, that to dub the majority population of Pakistain as secessionists was "a cruel joke" which ought to "befool none," that indeed the world’s powerful nations should be according recognition to a nation struggling to be born out of calamitous darkness.
