According to BNP leaders, Sheikh Hasina conspired with foreign forces to weaken Bangladesh’s military and BDR as early as 2005. Sixteen years after the tragic Pilkhana massacre, the government has officially recognized the date as National Martyr Soldiers’ Day. Home Affairs Advisor paid tribute at Banani cemetery at 9 AM, and the army also held a commemoration ceremony. Allegations persist that the investigation was flawed, and Sheikh Hasina, along with 58 others, has been charged in the International Crimes Tribunal for her alleged involvement.
