		Matiur Rahman was my closest friend, from time immemorial, as if from the day the Aryans from Central Asia had set feet in India or from the period of Mahenjadaro and Harappa civilization.
		Matiur was aware that even if he did succeed in taking over an enemy aircraft, there were dangers in every step of the way.
		The action of Matiur Rahman on 20 August 1971 that led to his martyrdom must not be construed as something that he did out of sudden outburst of emotion; it was a finale of his deep hatred, aversion and vengeful attitude that he had nourished for years against a system.

		So I think the Hamoodur Rahman Commission Report was a vindication of all those few people in West Pakistan who were, at that point, telling the truth, who went to jail for telling the truth, who were called traitors for telling the truth, who suffered for telling the truth.
