A newly surfaced testimony from the National Independent Investigation Commission report on the 2009 BDR mutiny has revealed that a group of junior army officers attempted to break into an armory at the Sylhet SI&T training center the day after the Pilkhana massacre. Colonel Niamul Islam Fatemi of DGFI rushed to the scene and found officers attacking the armory door with tools, calling him a government agent. Senior officers intervened to protect him. The testimony, given by the 47th witness, also stated that Brigadier General Mamun Khaled advised Colonel Fatemi to contact Major General Tarique Siddique, then the Prime Minister’s military adviser, who said the army chief would not come. Later, Lieutenant General Jahangir Alam Chowdhury arrived by helicopter and calmed the officers after two hours of discussion. The 2009 BDR mutiny, in which 57 army officers were killed, remains one of Bangladesh’s darkest military tragedies.
