The government has revoked the freedom fighter certificates of 52 people, including ex-army officer Risaldar Mosleh Uddin Khan alias Moslem Uddin Khan, one of the killers of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman.

A gazette notifying the cancellation of their titles was published on Jan 5 in line with the recommendations made during the 70th meeting of the National Freedom Fighters Council.

Bangabandhu and his family members were brutally assassinated on Aug 15, 1975. Five of the killers, including Mosleh Uddin, who was sentenced to death, are on the run. Four of them were recipients of the freedom fighter gallantry awards, which the High Court in a ruling on Dec 15, had also suspended.
