Corrigendum
The Daily Star published an article by Kuldip Nayar on July 18, 2016, titled “Kuldip Nayar's tribute to Faraaz Hossain--Death be not proud.” In this article there is a sentence as follows: “There is no doubt that Faraaz Hossain sacrificed his life for his friends (one Indian and the other a US citizen)…”. The fact is Faraaz's two friends mentioned by Mr. Nayar were--Tarishi Jain, an Indian national and Abinta Kabir, a Bangladeshi national. Abinta Kabir was a Bangladeshi by birth and she spent most of her short life in Bangladesh. In 2010, her father was given citizenship by the US government and being his offspring, she was given an American passport. So, she had dual citizenship of both Bangladesh and USA.
