#Hindu Men and women were separated into two lines, forced to say “Pakistan Zindabad” and recite “La-illaha illa’ Llah”. Then they were shot. Childern screaming in panic were set on fire with the half-dead adults while they were still begging for water.

The army, instigated by ex-Mayor of #Dhaka #Bangladesh, Khaja Khaeruddin, then proceeded to Ma Anandamoyee Ashram and burned 50 cows. Pakistani soldiers sized the young #Hindu girls standing in line and forcefully took them along. These girls were never seen again.
