Remembrance of Lahirirhat genocide
RANGPUR: The local people still remember the horrific genocide of 32 ‘Musollis’ committed by the Pakistani occupation forces just after Juma prayers near Lahirirhat mosque under Sadar upazila here on May 7 in 1971. “Genocide of the ‘Musollis’ after Juma prayers at Lahirirhat factually unmasked the so called ‘religious’ face of the Pakistani junta,” said District Muktijoddha Commander Mosaddek Hossain Bablu. “The Lahirirhat genocide helped the common people irrespective of caste, creed and religion—- to easily understand the false propaganda conducted by the then Pakistani junta of saving Islam from the enemies —-,” he said. According to the book ‘Mukitjuddhe Rangpurer Itihas’ published by Rangpur district administration, the occupation forces came by four trucks got down in front of Lahirirhat Mosque and soon caught the Musollis just after Juma prayers on the day. “The innocent ‘Musollis’ soon started running all around to escape from the human beasts when 32 of them, including a father and his son, were caught by the occupation forces,” the book wrote, reports BSS.
