The Bengal Lancers were directly involved in the coup and killing of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman.[5] They were posted to Bogra Cantonment and their officers were sent into diplomatic posting outside of Bangladesh.[5][6] Major General Ziaur Rahman, chief of Bangladesh Army, had difficulty moving the Bengal Lancers to Bogra but was forced after Air Vice Marshall Muhammad Ghulam Tawab, Chief of Bangladesh Air Force, threatened to use Air Force aircraft against the Bengal Lancers.[5]
