A summary of this article appears in Sheikh Mujibur father. |
Freedom fighter is too loaded a phrase to reasonably use and doesn't add anything to the article overall Alastairward 23:21, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
The article is littered with spelling and grammatical mistakes, and the patently obvious bias (e.g. "the greatest bangali") should be ammended. I attempted a primary clean up. New to editing, so I dont know how to label the bias.
Also, there are a lot of places requiring citations.
This article talks an awful lot about people being "killed", "assassinated", and "murdered". But how were they killed? Shot? Stabbed? Blasted with negative thoughts? The passive voice is a problem, too, but secondary to the vague language. Kafziel Complaint Department 21:39, 19 November 2009 (UTC)
The article is filled with bias, towards both Mujib and his detractors. Many facts are horribly wrong, for example, he never declared himself "President for Life of Bangladesh". And just take a look at the introduction- "The assassination of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, part of a military coup, took place in the early hours of August 15, 1975, when a group of junior army officers invaded Sheikh Mujibur Rahman's residence with tanks. At the time of his assassination, Sheikh Mujibur Rahman was serving as the self-declared life-long president of Bangladesh."
Plus, the assassination is a major event in Bangladeshi history, hence the article should be more elaborate and comprehensive. I'll start working on it soon :).
The neutrality is very much questioned. Hence, the POV tag. It should have been given a long time ago.-- 202.191.127.5 ( talk) 22:15, 3 February 2010 (UTC)

I have removed the following unsourced original research from the article.
[Corruption started to spread during those initial years of Bangladeshi independence.] An example is, sari, basic dress for any Bangladeshi woman that time, mujib govenment imported it for 0.4 taka, but there were so many middle man, in local market it used to be 4-5 taka, which was too much (price for 150 kg jute fiber) at that time.
Then his family started corruption and they treated the national army very badly. The country people couldn't afford food and clothes, but his son got a heavy crown made with pure gold in this birthday which is indirectly the government money. The army used to get just one meal a day with two bread pieces and little curry(approx. 250 K cal) whereas Mujib's leaded local police "Jatiyo Rakkhi Bahini" got 3 times heavy meal (over 2000 k Cal). Source-(My dad was a junior army officer at that time)
But, one of the greatest reason why he was killed by national army's top Major rank officers is, his own son kidnapped a topnotch Major's wife and raped her. And father of the nation protected his son from law (obviously, cause they were the law makers).
In a nutshell, the whole national army was too angry after this incident and the previous discrimination's.
Rahman had to face the disastrous aftermath of the 1971 war.
After his death, the national army in Dhaka brought out a cheers rally on the streets of the capital city, they were happy that the country got saved. But, they still respected him, because, Bangladesh was created from his words.
If you want to explain why the assassination was carried out, you have to provide better sources. Your father's stories are not a reliable source, as per WP:RS, even if he had been a co-conspirator. -- Petri Krohn ( talk) 03:27, 14 December 2012 (UTC)

I'm conducting a copyedit of this page and I haven't been able to find a clear definition for the "Rtd." acronym that appears next to many names. The closest would be the military acronym "Returned to duty". If so, I'm not sure how much it adds to the article and I'm tempted to delete entirely or use only at first mention of title. What do others think? Wingedserif ( talk) 20:54, 1 September 2019 (UTC)
In my opinion, that acronym could also mean the opposite of "Returned to duty", ie "Retired". Not sure, myself. Alvin Seville ( talk) 15:13, 2 September 2019 (UTC)

This article says Abdul Majid was acquitted, but Abdul Majid (officer) says his sentence was upheld. Blaylockjam10 ( talk) 20:40, 8 April 2020 (UTC)
There is no mention about MA Rashed Chowdhury, one of the absconding plotters staying in the US. There has been several media reports on him recently. LucrativeOffer ( talk) 11:08, 15 August 2020 (UTC)

I am not done updating this page using translations from the Bengali page, but have done so for the first section on Rahman's presidency.
