A newly submitted report by the National Independent Investigation Commission has revealed that the 2009 Pilkhana massacre, carried out under the guise of a BDR mutiny, was a premeditated act involving direct foreign influence and complicity of the then ruling Awami League. The report, handed to Chief Adviser Dr. Muhammad Yunus by commission head Maj. Gen. (Retd.) A. L. M. Fazlur Rahman, accuses several political and military figures, including former MP and later Dhaka South Mayor Sheikh Fazle Noor Taposh, of coordinating the attack with the alleged approval of then Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina. The commission also cited failures by the army, police, and intelligence agencies to act during the crisis. Many involved reportedly fled abroad, and key evidence was destroyed. The findings aim to answer long-standing national questions about the tragedy, which claimed 57 army officers’ lives. The commission recommended measures to prevent similar incidents and ensure justice for victims.
