Affected members of the BDR mutiny of 2009 from 64 districts called for the reinstatement of innocent BDR personnel who were dismissed following the tragic events in Pilkhana on February 25-26, 2009. They made the demand in a press conference held at the National Press Club on Friday.
The conference emphasized the necessity of a thorough and impartial investigation into those responsible for the killings, as well as the release of individuals who have been detained under the Explosive Substances Act for 15 years without due process.
Saeed Ahmed Khan, a dismissed BDR member, asserted that those accountable for the planned killings must face proper investigation.
He stressed the importance of reinstating all innocent BDR members with full government benefits and called for expedited legal support for those unjustly imprisoned.
Saeed pointed out that with the formation of a new government, there should be additional time allocated for a fair investigation.
He welcomed the Home Adviser's announcement regarding the establishment of a committee to re-investigate the Pilkhana incident.
