| Today is that black day in history - BDR rebellion 2009 |
Today is that black day in history. BDR rebellion. The BD revolt was organized by a group of the then BDRs at Peelkhana in Dhaka on 25 and 26 February 2009. After the mutiny, the name of the organization was changed to Border Guard Bangladesh or BGB for short.
The company is now known as BGB. It is a paramilitary force whose main job is to guard the borders of Bangladesh. As such, they are also known as the Border Guard Force. Rebel BDR troops stormed the BDR headquarters in Pilkhana, killing 58 other army officers and 18 civilians, including BDR director-general Shakil Ahmed.
This is the most barbaric murder in Bangladesh. They fired on civilians, took many officers and their families hostage, vandalized installations and property, and looted valuables. On the second day of the uprising, unrest spread to 12 other towns where there were BDR camps. After several rounds of talks with the government, the rebels surrendered their weapons and released the hostages. The revolt ended with the surrender of arms.
Today is the 25th of February, a black chapter for Bangladesh. On this day, our heroic soldiers were brutally killed. Today marks an era of Peelkhana killings.
I seek the forgiveness of the souls of all the martyrs.
May Allah grant them Paradise.
