The Silent Witness by a General by Maj General Moinul Hussain Choudhury (rtd) is a reminiscence. This is a book about historic-political document also . The author has been focused on the post-Liberation dramatic events, especially socio-economic political perspectives and turmoil. According to author- “I wish to put into writing many dramatic events of the post-Liberation days…to strips away the false veneer of lies and expose the facts in their stark nakedness. I wish to related facts that none has perhaps related before with such directness. There are many who tend to colour the past and turn falsehood into truth in their interest, while truth is consigned to the trash-can of memory.” Without a doubt, the readers will be newly informed by the impartial and objective outlook of the author.
