An independent national investigation commission formed by Bangladesh’s interim government has alleged political involvement by members of the Awami League and possible Indian influence in the 2009 Pilkhana massacre at the then BDR headquarters in Dhaka. The commission’s report, submitted to Chief Adviser Professor Muhammad Yunus, claims that former MP Sheikh Fazle Noor Taposh coordinated the incident with a 'green signal' from then Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina. Witness testimonies revealed that Taposh allegedly instructed a youth to organize a rally that entered the BDR compound, and that members of the ruling party’s youth wing participated. Several witnesses also criticized the government’s handling of the mutiny, citing failures such as not deploying tanks, not convening the National Security Council, and declaring a general amnesty that emboldened the mutineers. The commission’s findings challenge previous official narratives and suggest political and external factors behind the tragic event.
