Hamidur Rahman Hamidur Rahman ( ) , ( 2 February 1953 - 28 October 1971 ) , better known as Shaheed Sepoy Hamidur Rahman , was a Sepoy in Bangladesh Army during the Bangladesh Liberation War . Hamidur Rahman was killed on October 28 , 1971 at Dhalai , Sylhet during an attempt to capture the Pakistani Army ' s position .

He was posthumously awarded the Bir Sreshtho , the highest recognition of bravery of Bangladesh . Background . Hamidur Rahman was born on 2 February 1953 in Khardo Khalishpur village under Moheshpur police station of the Jhenaidah district , and was the eldest son of his family . During the Partition of India in 1947 , his paternal properties fell in India . They crossed over the border and settled in the bordering area of Khorda Khalishpur of Jhenaidah district . He joined East Bengal Regiment on 2 February 1971 and participated in the 1971 Bangladesh Liberation War . During the war he made a significant contribution in capturing the Dhalai Border Outpost at Srimangal . Though the independence fighters came very close to the Border Outpost , it became very difficult to capture owing to the enemy machine gun which was continuously firing from the south - western corner of the Dhalai Border Outpost . On 28 October 1971 , a battle was taking place between 1st East Bengal Regiment and 30 A Frontier Force Regiment in Dhalai of Sylhet . 125 members of the East Bengal Regiment decided to use grenade s on the machine gun posts of the Pakistani army . Rahman took the responsibility of throwing grenades , and crawled through the hilly canals . He managed to throw two grenades before he was shot . Hamidur Rahman jumped into the enemy machine gun post and engaged in hand to hand fighting with the two crews who were guarding the gun , and at one point neutralized the gun . Realizing the fact that the machine gun outpost was damaged , the EBR ' s approach towards the enemy captured their first line within a short period of time . After the capture of the Dhalai Border Outpost , members of the EBR found the dead body of Rahman . Sepoy Hamidur Rahman ' s efforts helped the East Bengal Regiment take the outpost . He was buried in Tripura in India . On 27 October 2007 , advisers of the Bangladeshi caretaker government decided to bring back his remains to Bangladesh and bury him besides Bir Shrestho Matiur Rahman . It is said that the last place he stood alive was about 20 feet away from the Pakistani bunker , either in a canal or where the memorial is ( near the bunker ) . 10 December 2007 the remains of Hamidur Rahman were bought back to Bangladesh and on 11 December 2007 he was buried again at " Buddhijibi Koborsthan " ( Cemetery ) , Dhaka . For the courage , valour , dedication to the cause of his motherland and supreme sacrifice , he was conferred Bir Sreshtho by the nation of Bangladesh .
