Suddenly apocalypse happened as one after another 13 grenades rained down the buildings around and blasted with perilous effects. At least 23 persons met the most excruciating death and hundreds others maimed. AL’s women’s affairs secretary Ivy Rahman met the most brutal death one could imagine. Her legs were blown off from below her waist and she sat like a statue in deep shock. Hundred others lay like her, some dead and some alive that nobody could differentiate.
The target and the intention of the grenade attack in 2004 were clear. The attackers wanted to finish off Sheikh Hasina and the entire top leaders of the AL. They wanted to exterminate AL forever and turn Bangladesh into another land of terror.
Luckily for us that did not happen and Sheikh Hasina survived. The terrorists’ monstrous plan did not come true.
