Liberation War Affairs Minister AKM Mozammel Haque on Tuesday said the list of Razakars, an auxiliary force of the Pakistani occupation force during the 1971 liberation war, will be disclosed by December this year. He came up with the remark while talking to journalists after offering the Jummah prayer in Hazart Shahjalal (R) Majar Masjid in Sylhet. “Razakars’ list of principles were drafted, and even work is going on in this regard, it will be possible to disclose the list of the Razakars by December,” the minister said. He said, “Even before there was no act to make a list of the Razakars, the act was passed in the last parliament. Now a committee by making Parliamentary Standing Committee President on the Liberation War Affairs Shahjahan Khan as convener was formed to prepare the list.” Read more: Govt finally publishes list of 10,789 Razakars The minister hoped that the list will be disclosed at the end of the year. Asked about the ongoing movement by the opposition BNP on the caretaker government, he expressed reluctance to make comments saying that the party chief or general secretary can talk on this issue.  

A six-member parliamentary sub-committee, headed by Shajahan Khan, MP, was formed on Sunday to prepare lists of those who collaborated with the Pakistani occupation forces during the 1971 Liberation War.
