বাংলাদেশের স্বাধীনতা যুদ্ধ দলিলপত্র : অষ্টম খন্ড ll & ll TO The Chairman. Human Rights Commission Geneva. Sir, I beg to relate below some of the facts for your information and action. I was a permanent resident of Daudkandi in the district of Comilla within Bangladesh formerly known as East Pakistan. But since by no means I could save myself there I escaped to Agartala in India and I am writing this letter from here. The barbarous and cruel West Pakistani Troops left behind sufficient and tolling evidence of their atrocities at Dacca, Narayanganj, Munsiganj, Taltala, Sirajdhiga and Gazaria Police Stations in which places the Pak troops killed innumerable innocent residents in the darkness of the night. At Gazaria the said Pak troops mist inhumanely killed in all 8 hundred men, women and children by Machinegun fire and looted all the cash, gold ornaments and other valuables found in their houses. In broad day light the said Pak troops took into custody women & girls of the ages ranging From 12 to 30, blind folded them, took them to the Military Cantonment and ultimately dispatched them to West Pakistan. I myself saw the dead bodies of hundreds of young men, their hands and feet tied and killed inside the premises of Burma Eastern Company and Esso Company at Godnail in Narayanganj. Those deal bodies were thrown into the river. Women of the ages from youth to sixty were not spared in this area. They were raped, killed and thrown away. The atrocities are beyond description and rare in human history. Similar atrocities and killings were carried out at Narayanganj Terminal Jetty and Phatulla P. N. O. (Pakistan National Oil) Company area. Barbarous Yaya Government issued circulars directing all people of the ages between 12 & 30 to obtain Identity Cards from Military Cantonment but unfortunately none of those who Went there returned. Their fate can easily be guessed. Following the attack by the Liberation Forces the Pak troops are not content only by killing innocent villagers indiscriminately, they are not sparing old women and children. They are burning villages after villages and looting the properties. In accordance with directives of Banga Bandhu Sheikh Mujib the people of Bangladesh stopped payment of rents. As a result the West Pakistan Raiders were not only carrying on cruel oppression, they were threatening the people with confiscation of all their properties and trail in Military courts unless rents were paid within the 15" of May.
