Historic day
November 19, 2009 is a memorable day for all of us. The reason is not unknown to us at all. We have won the battle of justice after 34 years. From today people will remember this day with full satisfaction and pride as well. Satisfaction is for the justice to the late president Sheikh Mujibur Rahman and his family members and pride for being able to erase the disgrace of the massacre of 15 August 1975. This day has also raised the hope of ordinary people for justice being meted out to the four national leaders killed in jail on 3 November 1975 and also the trial of war criminals. Similarly, it has made us more confident that our law has its own power to control crime and punish the criminals and it has regained the almost lost faith of ordinary people. Moreover it has changed the proverb that, IF IT IS DELAYED, IT IS DENIED because this litigation has been delayed but not denied. It's true that after a long time, we have got our desired verdict.
