Hon. Mujibur Rahman questioned the impartiality of an investigation involving the Defence establishment, noting that the individual who was Eastern Commander at the relevant time now serves as State Minister of Defence. He argued that an inquiry conducted by officers subordinate to that person could not be considered fair, and raised concern about the credibility of the process.
