Bangladeshi police have charged more than 1,000 border guards with murder and arson after a bloody mutiny in the capital that left as many as 148 people dead or missing, most of them army officers.

Seventy-two officers were still missing today after a two-day mutiny by Bangladesh’s border guards, as the death toll rose to 76 with the discovery of 10 more bodies in mass graves at the force’s headquarters, the military said.
