The verdict reduced him to tears…

He couldn't fight back his tears when the verdict of Quader Mollah, a hateful war criminal of Bangladesh, was delivered. He couldn't take his dinner, he even didn't talk with anyone the whole night. He wrote a single sentence in his diary: “I want to die before the verdicts of other war criminals of Bangladesh are declared.”
The freedom fighter I am talking about is my father. From our childhood he taught us patriotism, morality, discipline, sincerity, etc. Being a veteran freedom fighter of the soil, he never sought any privilege even for us. Being an honest man, he faced a lot of troubles in his life and now he is crying for his country again. He thought the war criminals will be hanged for the crimes they committed in 1971. But he is too shocked after hearing the sentence of life term imprisonment for the heinous war criminal Quader Mollah. He never thought that he would have to see this in his life time!
