UNB, Barishal :
Freedom fighter advocate Tapan Kumar Chakraborty, who found his name on the recently-published list of Razakars, on Tuesday said it would have been better for him to die than seeing his name on the list.
“After 48 years of independence, the names of mine and my mother Usha Rani Chakraborty appeared on the list of Razakars. I felt very shocked and I’ve no word to say. It would have been better for me to die than seeing my name on the list,” he said while talking to reporters after a press briefing in the city.
Tapan said, his father Sudhir Kumar Chakraborty was picked up by Pakistani occupation forces from his residence on August 12, 1971 during the Liberation War and he was later killed at Wapda killing ground. “My father was recognised as a freedom fighter after the Liberation War,” he said.
