Mournful August 15: 49th martyrdom anniversary of Bangabandhu

Today is the mournful 15th of August, marking the 49th martyrdom anniversary of the Father of the Nation, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman. On this day in 1975, a group of misguided military officers brutally assassinated Bangabandhu and most of his family members at his residence in Dhanmondi. His two daughters, Sheikh Hasina and Sheikh Rehana, survived as they were abroad at the time.
