Rejoinders, our reply
Wahidur Rahman and Mahbubul Haque Chisty alias Babul Chisty, newly elected vice-chairman and secretariat member of Muktijoddha Sangsad central command council, respectively, have issued separate rejoinders to the report headlined "Bought out!" published in The Daily Star on June 16.
WAHID'S REJOINDER Wahidur Rahman, chief engineer of LG ED,
FROM PAGE 1
protested the reporter's finding that his name was not found on the freedom fighters list prepared by the 1996-2001 Awami League-led government and published in "Muktibarta" book.
"My name was there in Muktibarta published on October 7, 2000 under the serial number No 0204050947," he claimed.
To back his claim that he was a freedom fighter, Wahid said he had provided documents to the Ministry of Liberation War Affairs. And it was also not true that the ministry was not satisfied with the documents as stated in the report, he added.
The rejoinder also claimed that the report's presenting "wrong information" about the High Court order staying his candidacy was tantamount to "contempt of court".
It added that contents of the report regarding monetary issues linking Muktijoddha Sangsad and the LGED were motivated.
CHISTY'S REJOINDER
Mahbubul Haque Chisty alias Babul Chisty termed the report completely false and motivated. He
claimed to be a "real freedom fighter".
But, he alleged, the defeated panel of Ahad Chowdhury was running a smear campaign against him.
With the rejoinder, Chisty provided a document of Bangladesh Muktijoddha Kalyan Trust which read that he was included in the list of freedom fighters.
OUR REPLY
In Muktibarta, popularly known as Muktibarta Red Book, the list of freedom fighters from Wahid's home area Chouddagram starts at page 52 and ends at page 64.
The first serial number is 0204050001 and the last is 0204050787. The serial number provided by Wahidur Rahman was not found on the list.
Since Wahid has claimed that his name was available in Muktibarta, published on October 7, 2000, he could be talking about a weekly of the same name published on that date.
Muktibarta book in 1996-2001 was prepared after verifying the names published in the weekly, said Abdul Ahad Chowdhury, the
then Muktijoddha Sangsad central command council chairman.
"The persons who claimed themselves as freedom fighters were first named in the magazine. After freedom fighters of respective thanas reviewed the claims, the real freedom fighters' names were published in the original book."
The magazine cannot be considered an official document, he explained.
About the part on the court order, Wahid didn't specify exactly which information had wrongly been presented.
While investigating the LGED link with the Muktijoddha polls, The Daily Star got some pictures showing engineers addressing an election rally and using government vehicles.
On June 16, several freedom fighters at a conference at the Institution of Engineers alleged engineers under the LGED ministry had participated in Wahid's election campaign across the country.
The war heroes also alleged that the engineers had spent huge sums for the chief engineer.
About Chisty, the report men-
tioned that around 60 freedom fighters from Bakshiganj of Jamalpur in 2009 applied to the Muktijoddha Sangsad central command to drop his name from the list.
In the application, the freedom fighters claimed Chisty got training in India and then participated in the war. But after sometime, he changed his mind and became an informer of the Pakistan occupation force.
Nazim Uddin Talukder, former deputy commander of Jamalpur, too said at the June 16 conference that Chisty was an informer of the Pakistan occupation force during the Liberation War.
The Daily Star has also obtained documents regarding a case filed against Chisty for the killing of a freedom fighter in 1971.
On the list of freedom fighters of Jamalpur in the Muktibarta book, serial number of Bakshiganj started at page 67 and ended at page 74. The first serial number is 011 307000 and the last is 0113070376. Nowhere does the list contain the name of Mahbubul Haque Chisty alias Babul Chisty.
