Bangladesh let 178 former paramilitary troops walk free from jail on Thursday, nearly 16 years after they were detained over a violent mutiny that massacred dozens of senior army officers.

DHAKA:

Rampaging troops from the Bangladesh Rifles (BDR) murdered 74 people during the two-day revolt that began in Dhaka and spread across the country in 2009, destabilising the government of then-premier Sheikh Hasina weeks after she took office. Thousands of participants were rounded up after the mutiny ended with more than 150 initially sentenced to death in trials criticised by rights groups for procedural shortcomings.
