We apologise
We owe our readers an apology.
In our report, we mistakenly stated "Tofail Ahmed, a veteran politician and one of the organisers of the 1969 mass uprising and Bangladesh's 1971 Liberation War, has passed away at the age of 82."
This was incorrect. The accurate information is that local government expert and former professor of Public Administration at Chittagong University Tofail Ahmed has passed away at the age of 71.

Thank you for holding us to account.
