We were tortured in 1971, Pakistan should apologize, said the Minister of Bangladesh
Foreign Minister of Bangladesh A. Of. Abdul Momen on Saturday said that Pakistan should apologize to the people of Bangladesh for the atrocities committed in 1971. He said the apology would serve as a guide for future governments in Islamabad against such heinous acts.
Speaking at the Foreign Service Academy in Dhaka on the occasion of the 52nd Independence Day, Momen said Pakistan should be “ashamed” not to apologize for the atrocities committed on Bengalis in 1971, the Dhaka Tribune reported.
“At that time, the Pakistani army committed heinous crimes and genocide. Even the Pakistani government reported that his torture was excessive. They have violated all national and international human rights laws.
