Hasna Begum, Advocate, Supreme Court of Bangladesh
According to the government statement, a total of 11 persons were killed during the daytime anarchy on May 5 and none was killed when Hefajat men were flushed out by law enforcers from Motijheel in the capital. HRW in a report said at least 58 people, including seven members of security forces died during May 5-6. The Odhikar report put the death toll at 61. Now we, the citizens of Bangladesh, have the right to know the accurate death figure.
