Reporters Without Borders has released their 2008 Annual Report on Bangladesh. Among their major concerns this year are the rise of the military government, the lack of freedom of press, threats to media personnel and the torture of journalists:

“A drop in the number of physical assaults and death threats was eclipsed by dozens of cases of arrests, maltreatment and censorship committed by the army against independent journalists. The interim government and the military put an end to political disorder but at the price of serious violations of press freedom.” [Read the full report HERE]

In probably a first of its kind, we can now have a window into what happens when DGFI “picks someone up”. If this is not torture, what is?

Is this the human rights that our civil society gets paid to work on? How come not ONE local so called “human rights” organizations took this story public and where was our democratic cheerleaders?

It was expremely brave for Tasneem to have spoken out this way. We now know the reality of what happens in our Armed Forces and DGFI.

Shame on those who support these groups.

Please read full report on E-bangladesh.

Now we know the Acc has decided to investigate the corruption in the army.So they are accepting that our Army is corrupted somewhere.It will be very interesting to see how biased this ACC, how clown  these ACC decision makers are.Let’s wait and see.
