tldr of the wiki page: After the british left there were 2 territories of Pakistan ,West Pakistan (present day pakistan) and East Pakistan (present day Bangladesh). The west pakistan started to treat the east pakistani citizens as second class citizens after independence.
This resulted in protests which the West Pakistani (present day Pakistan) government dealt with brutal repression , around 1.5 million to 3 million people were killed and further 400000 women raped
He was of the opinion that the **200,000 to 400,000 rape victims was an underestimation**. On the actions of Pakistan army,
he said “They’d keep the infantry back and put artillery ahead and they would shell the hospitals and schools. And that caused absolute chaos in the town. And then the infantry would go in and begin to segregate the women. Apart from little children, all those were sexually matured would be segregated … And then the **women would be put in the compound under guard and made available to the troops … Some of the stories they told were appalling. Being raped again and again and again. A lot of them died in those [rape] camps”.**[**^([340])**](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wartime_sexual_violence#cite_note-340)

It’s honestly really interesting how one of the largest genocides in the second half of the twentieth century simply gets pushed under the rug. Pakistan doesn’t even acknowledge that they committed a genocide, and neither does the UN.

Not the worst since the holocaust (sadly) and it only lost 15% of its territory.
Why are you spreading misinformation about this? The real numbers are bad, no need to exaggerate.

During the [Bangladesh Liberation War](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bangladesh_Liberation_War) in 1971, numerous women were tortured and raped by the Pakistani army. Exact numbers are not known and are a subject of debate. Most of the women were captured from [Dhaka University](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dhaka_University) and private homes and kept as sex-slaves inside the Dhaka Cantonment.[^([339])](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wartime_sexual_violence#cite_note-time.oct25-1971-339)
Australian Doctor Geoffrey Davis was brought to Bangladesh by the United Nation and [International Planned Parenthood Federation](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Planned_Parenthood_Federation) to carry out **late-term abortions on rape victims**.
