Dhaka, June 4 (bdnews24.com)—The government has named Principal Staff Officer of the Armed Forces Division Lieutenant General Muhammad Abdul Mubin as new army chief.

General Mubin will replace General Moeen U Ahmed, who on April 6 last year had his service extended by a year. The extension that took effect from June 15 last year ends on June 13.

Mubin, former GOC of 24th Infantry Division in Chittagong, was made PSO to the Armed Forces Division exactly a year ago on June 4, 2008 in a major reshuffle of top army posts.

A close associate told bdnews24.com that General Mubin's family and friends were calling and visiting to congratulate him on his new assignment.

Gen Mubin made a nationwide televised statement on the night of on Feb 27 to clarify that the 'general amnesty' the government had declared during the Feb 25-26 BDR mutiny did not mean that rebel BDR border guards involved in killings, arson and other crimes would be forgiven.
