IN MEMORY OF LATE CAPTAIN MUKHLESUR RAHMAN (3N): Mubashir Ahmed Khan (2E)

Late Mukhlesur Rahman passed away in Khulna on 12th June,2020. Inna lillahe wa inna elaihe rejeun.

Mukhlesur Rahman was one year junior to me at Marine Academy Chittagong. He was a nice and gentleman cadet. I remember, after our final examination, he was member of the team who were compiling the results. During this time, I met him by coincidence and he told me that I had obtained the highest marks in mathematics. He also told me my marks in other subjects. I was surprised at his intelligence and sharp memory.

It is interesting that after the Academy,I did not meet him despite the fact that I served with BSC and other private shipping companies in Bangladesh. However, I heard from other BD mariners that he was a religious person and extremely honest. His younger brother Captain Mustafizur Rahman (5N) had met me in Karachi when I was junior engineer on board M V Al-Murtaza in 1969.

May his soul rest in peace. Our sympathies are with all members of the bereaved family.
