Subscribed to his second statement appear the following words: -"Dewan Harun Md. Maniruddin, 23-3-52-a student of the Jagannath College, Dacca who was present at the time of firing and who took part in the State Language movement of the students." When he appeared before the enquiry he changed his tune and stated that he had actually gone on that morning, not to the University but to the Outdoor Department of the Medical College Hospital for treatment, and he disclaimed the position which he had assumed for himself in his written statement as one who took part in the State Language movement of the students. As to the witnesses he named, he admitted that he never consulted them to see if they knew anything about the firing-he put their names as he thought they would be “good witnesses." In this spirit he put down the names of Mr. Fazlul Huq and Mr. Shamsuddin and he named Matiul Islam (Witness 56) who was in Chandpur and Noor Mohammed (Witness 57) who was in Noakhali on the date of the firing.
