What "unsubstantiated claim" are you referring to? No media outlets were allowed near the school when the dead bodies were being removed from the classrooms. The only reliable sources available are the students themselves — the ones who witnessed everything with their own eyes.
You clearly have no idea about the ground reality. Students from Milestone, many of whom were part of the rescue effort, have testified that they personally carried out over 10 to 15 bodies. Do you even know how many students typically sit in a Bangladeshi classroom?
This traitor interim government has spun a false narrative, deliberately suppressing the death toll to protect the public image of the army and air force. But the truth can’t be buried like the bodies they tried to steal in the dead of night.
The rescue mission was called off around 8 PM. Yet, under the cover of darkness, the military returned to steal bodies from the dormitory — and when confronted by resident students, they brutally beat them, along with their teachers.
Furtgermore, when students tried to speak to the media, sharing what they saw and the real number of casualties, army personnel dragged them away on live camera and beat them in front of everyone — just for telling the truth.
These sold out traitors r doing politics with the dead bodies. Why even after 24 hours of the horrific incident, this scum administration couldn't provide any support to the parents who were seen running from one medical to another to search for their children. My news feed has been flooded with pictures of missing students, but the the sold outs of our country r parroting the fake numbers again and again.
