Genocídio em Bangladesh em 1971
O genocídio em Bangladesh começou em 26 de março de 1971 com o lançamento da Operação Holofote, [1] quando o Paquistão Ocidental iniciou uma ofensiva militar na ala oriental do país para reprimir os bengalis que exigiam autodeterminação. [2] Durante os nove meses de uma longa guerra pela independência de Bangladesh, membros das forças armadas paquistanesas e das milícias que as apoiavam assassinaram entre 300 mil[3] e 3 000 000[4] pessoas e estupraram entre 200 000 a 400 000 mulheres de Bangladesh em uma campanha sistemática de estupro genocida. [5][6]
A guerra também testemunhou a violência sectária entre bengalis e biharis de língua urdu. Há um consenso acadêmico que os acontecimentos que ocorreram durante a guerra de libertação de Bangladesh constituíram um genocídio.[7]

It is also rape unto death, rape as massacre, rape to kill and to make the victims wish they were dead. It is rape as an instrument of forced exile, rape to make you leave your home and never want to go back. It is rape to be seen and heard and watched and told to others: rape as spectacle. It is rape to drive a wedge through a community, to shatter a society, to destroy a people. It is rape as genocide
