The Platinum Jubilee Jute Mill: A Testament to Unparalleled Brutality in 1971
The Platinum Jubilee Jute Mill, situated on the banks of the Bhairab River in Khalishpur, stands as a grim symbol of the horrific brutality inflicted by the Pakistani occupying forces during the Liberation War of 1971. The atrocities committed against Bengalis at this site remain unparalleled in the annals of human cruelty.
One of the most inhumane methods of torture involved burning people alive in the mill's boiler. Innocent victims were forcibly placed alive into sacks, which were then inserted into the blazing boiler feet-first, subjecting them to unimaginable agony.
Over time, 60 workers of the mill met this harrowing fate, burned alive in an act of sheer barbarity.
