Jatiya Party Chairman HM Ershad is laid to rest at his home in Rangpur city with state honour.
HM Ershad is dead. But before his death at the age of 90, the longest serving autocrat managed to remain a formidable political force, especially in the politics of vote, even after his downfall in 1990.
The trials for two long running cases against former military dictator Hussain Mohammad Ershad, who died yesterday, still remain pending.
In 1982, Ershad usurped state power as Chief Martial Law Administrator by removing Abdus Sattar-led government through a bloodless coup, and 3 days later he installed Justice Abul Fazl Mohammad Ahsanuddin Chowdhury as President. Ershad assumed country’s Presidency in 1983. Following a nationwide mass movement, he was finally forced to step down in 1990.
