Investigators, assigned for investigating the last month's BDR carnage, started collecting witness accounts yesterday from the residents living around the BDR headquarters.

Besides, another team

recorded witness statements from 39 BDR members who reported back to the headquarters after the mutiny.
One ASP from CID who is a member of the investigation team, told The Daily Star that they are trying to collect the data on the carnage from as many angles as possible.
ASPWaheduzzamanofCID said they recorded statements of 39 BDR members who were present at Pilkhana during the mutiny.
CID sources said all the 39 BDR men who were grilled yesterday said none of them witnessed any criminal activities of the mutineers as they stayed in their barracks and also fled after climbing its boundary walls in different times at night on February25 and 26.
According to the CID sources, the investigators are trying to make the innocent BDR members witnesses. But they are facing difficulties as the BDR members who were present during the mutiny but innocent, are trying to avoid becoming witnesses.
Accordingly, the neighbours are also avoiding the investigators as saying that they left their residences during the mutiny as the mutineers threatened them to keep their doors and windows closed.
Meanwhile, CID senior ASP Abdul Kahar Akond, who is leading the 250-member team engaged in the investigation, said they also recoded the statements of several accused BDR men along with the witnesses. ,
Sources said the investigators so far prepared 124 seizure lists, which contain around 950 items of evidences collected from around 60 spots.
So far the CID and Rapid Action Battalion (Rab) officials have arrested 694 BDR men. Of them, 114 persons were taken on remand in different times.
The investigators collected witness accounts from around 1,000 persons, including the BDR officials and their family members.
