Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 76841, member: 636"] A UN expert is calling Bangladesh's forensic work on 114 unidentified protest victims from the summer a major step toward getting answers and holding people accountable. Morris Tidball-Binz visited the country to help with the investigations and said the process could strengthen their forensic systems while giving families some closure. Authorities started digging up bodies and running DNA tests at a temporary morgue, and they expect to wrap everything up soon. The deaths happened when the government cracked down on student demonstrations against a job quota system that reserved positions for war veterans' families. Security forces killed over 300 people after the prime minister ordered them to shoot rioters on sight. She ended up fleeing to India after stepping down, and a tribunal later sentenced her to death for crimes against humanity. [/QUOTE]
