Eight victims buried as unidentified after the July uprising have been identified through DNA testing, according to a briefing held Thursday evening at the Foreign Service Academy in Dhaka. Chief Adviser’s Press Secretary Shafiqul Alam announced that the remains were among 118 bodies exhumed from the Rayerbazar graveyard. Families of the identified individuals have been informed, and the Ministry of Liberation War Affairs will soon release further details. The identification process is being conducted under international standards. Shafiqul Alam said that the same international experts who worked on identifying victims of the Srebrenica massacre in Bosnia trained Bangladeshi specialists for this effort. Local experts have been equipped to perform precise DNA-based identification. The press secretary emphasized that the government remains committed to confirming the identity of every martyr, despite the process being time-consuming and complex. The initiative began after the interim government took office to identify those buried as unclaimed following the July–August mass uprising.
