It has been a year since the terrible and ghastly incident. The brutal deaths, the murderous rampage, those dark 3 nights- has seen a year.
What we have yet to see is justice being served.
Only the families of these departed souls know how they are suffering, we can’t relate to their pain. The once trapped hostages relives those horrid days over and over again.
A wife lost her husband who had nothing to do with the mutiny, 4 months later she lost her only son(7 years old) who became sick at the loss of his father.
Now she is left with nothing…………………………….
Money won’t bring back their beloved.
Only proper trial will. It has been a year and the only thing the government has been able to do is open the case???!!!!
It makes us wonder whether our legal system will ever be effective?
Don’t give us fake hope, give these honourable soldiers the respect that they deserve.

Shy children saying their greetings
Bangladesh, officially called the People’s Republic of Bangladesh is a small country in South Asia bordered by India, Burma and the Bay of Bengal. First country to have a liberation war for the sake of their mother tongue and also to grant women suffrage. The world language day has been dedicated to our language movement and is celebrated every year on 21st February.
Our low lying country is a frequent victim of floods and natural disasters, the most recent being cyclone Aila and Sidr. When the likes of Katrina hit United States, people affected became miserable and are still trying to overcome its damages with subsidies from the government. Our government does not have the power to offer so much subsidies like U.S.A, they can only offer some aids in the form of food and shelter. Even after 2 major cyclones in a matter of 3 years; the people most affected had to start their lives all over again. These brave men and women continue their lives filled with new hopes and determination that the future would be better.
We have our two female prime ministers, who have both run the government twice - playing a significant role for women in politics as well as our male dominated society. Our people have elected a new government every term, with hope that the next time Bangladesh will resurface with a better image.
