拉杰卜一个人在布拉马普特拉河边漫步，他回忆起自己拥有健全身体时十分难过：“双腿完好的时候，我可以游过这条河。”如今拉杰卜喜欢独自一人生活在他自己的世界里，和周围的人距离越来越远。 ‘When I had both of my legs I used to cross this river …..’ said Rajib. Rajib became very sad when having a walk beside the river Brahmaputra. He takes a walk alone. In his own world he is alone and he loves to remain so. He goes further and further away from all of us.

罗宾在一个圣殿里被炸掉了双腿，那时候他才上三年级。在孟加拉国，有圣殿文化传统的伊斯兰派别由于其苏非派的渊源而遭到原教旨主义者们的敌视。四年过去了，每当回忆起那些日子，罗宾仍然忧伤不已：“我只不过是在那里玩的小孩子，他们为什么要炸我？” Robin was a student of class three. He was in a shrine when the bomb blast. As the Islam based on shrine culture is the continuation of Sufi Islam, so it is hated by the fundamentalist groups in Bangladesh. After four years of the incident Robin still feels sad when he remembers those days. As he said – “I was just playing there, why did they bomb me? I was just a kid.”

失去了双眼的拉德哈拉妮在家门口和儿子和侄子们聊天。2001年右翼和伊斯兰派别开始联合执政之后，孟加拉国出现了大量对少数族群的压迫。拉德哈拉妮被自己村里的几个穆斯林男子轮奸。因为害怕被她认出来，这些人挖掉了她的眼睛，使她无法在法庭指认凶手。 After the coalition of pro-right and pro-Islamic government came to power back in 2001, there were thousands of cases of minority oppression in Bangladesh. When Rhadharani was gang raped by few of the Muslim strong men in her village, she could easily recognize them. The rapist spooned out both of her eyes so that she can never testify before the court. Rhadarani chats with her sons and nephews in front of her house.

“总有一天我可以重新走路，”乌特帕尔经常告诉自己。然而现实是他从身体中部到脚趾都没有任何知觉，恐怕在这个世界上他再也无法站起来走路了。 "Some day I will walk again", Utpal always reminds himself. But the fact is he does not have any sense from the mid of his body to the toe of his leg. He will never be able to walk on the soil of this earth again.

这是拉杰卜家的厨房兼卧室。这间10英尺长7英尺宽的小棚子根本无法遮蔽雨水。 A ten feet by seven feet kitchen-cum-bed room, the place where ‘Rajib’ lives. Whenever it rains, the old roof refuses to protect the room from flooding.

1999年，阿卜杜尔.瓦杜在清真寺祷告时遭到手榴弹袭击，失去了右腿和右手的一部分。在那次袭击中死了9个人，许多人受伤。 Sheik Abdul Wadud was praying in a mosque when a grenade attack took his right leg and a portion of his right hand back in 1999. Nine men died and numerous people were injured in the attack.

这是一个十口之家，拉杰卜是家里的主要劳力，却在一次袭击中失去了一条腿：“我们家里有十口人，包括我父母和我们8个兄弟姐妹。在受伤之前，我和父亲一起在公墓工作，他是那里的看墓人。那时候我们两个人挣钱，虽然挣得少，至少还能活下去。但是现在我没法工作了，家里有时候连一日三餐都无法保证。” 拉杰卜说。 “We are a family of ten members- my parents and eight of our brothers and sisters. Before the attack, I used to work at the graveyard with my father. My father is a caretaker of a government owned graveyard. Though even before the attack, me and my father didn’t earn decent enough, we knew at least we won’t starve to death. Now, without me as an earning member, sometimes we do not have enough money to eat three times a day” says Rajib.

阿马纳特.蒙多尔是一名孟加拉国共产党党员，他在参加一次会议时遭到炸弹袭击。炸弹在他身体里留下了无数弹片，时常引起疼痛，至今他的右腿仍然几乎无法动作。“我经常痛得叫出来，有时甚至因为疼痛而发烧。现在满月马上就要过去，又到了要忍受疼痛的时候了。 Amarnath Mondol, member of Communist Party of Bangladesh, got injured in the bomb attack in their party meeting. "Sometimes I groan. Sometimes it pains so much that I get a fever. The time after the full moon is approaching, the pain will start again." His right leg is almost inactive…there are still many splinters left in legs, hands, belly, back, and head. The body always pains for the splinters. He still has to take medicine.

一次针对一家银行的自杀式袭击之后，遇难者阿布.卡西姆.萨卡尔的家人在停尸间痛苦地等待尸检结果。这次爆炸发生时，萨卡尔正好在银行领取当月工资。自杀式袭击的目标往往是公众场所，遇难的也不可避免的都是普通百姓。 It was a long wait at the morgue waiting for postmortem to be over. The suicidal attack targeted mostly the public places and the target was invariably the ordinary people. Abul Kashem Sarkar happened to be at the bank withdrawing his monthly salary at that time.

沙宾曾经是一个电影院的放映员，然而因为在一次针对文化活动的炸弹袭击中失去了双腿，他无法达到对放映员的最低身高要求，因此丢掉了工作。 Shahin, a former projectionist of a cinema hall named ‘Ajanta,’ is a victim of the series of bomb attacks targeting cultural activities in Bangladesh. After the attack, Shahin lost legs and his job; He no longer met the minimum height requirement for being a projectionist.
