A book penned by a late former Pakistan Army General has lifted the lid off the genocide carried out by the nation in erstwhile East Pakistan.
A Stranger in My Own Country: East Pakistan, 1969-91, by late Major General (retd) Khadim Hussain Raza, provides an account of the brutal elimination of more than three million people carried out by the Pakistan Army, led by the infamous General AKK Niazi, from 1969 until the creation of Bangladesh in 1971.
Raza, then General Officer Commanding 14 Division of the army, was posted in East Pakistan during the period. The book has been published posthumously by Oxford University Press, given the sensitive nature of the subject.
Raza claimed in his book that Niazi had threatened to let loose Pakistani soldiers on the women of East Pakistan in an audacious bid to alter the ethnicity of the Bengali race. His comments had even driven an officer of Bengali origin, Major Mustaq, to suicide. Niazi later surrendered to General JFR Jacob of the Indian Army.
The book also claims that the equally notorious General Tikka Khan, the commander of the Eastern command, wanted to publicly try liberation movement leader Sheikh Mujibur Rehman in Dhaka and hang him.
Raza also blasted Major General Rahim Khan - his junior who, too, was posted in East Pakistan - who allegedly believed that " Bengalis were timid people and should have been subdued long ago". Rahim later fled Dhaka when the situation worsened.
Pakistan had launched Operation Searchlight on March 25, 1971, to curb the Bengali nationalist movement by taking control of major cities on March 26, and then eliminating all opposition, political or military, within a month.
