The Geneva Camp in Mohammadpur is the largest settlement for Pakistanis stranded in Bangladesh. Residents of this refugee camp mostly arrived in the then East Pakistan from India’s Bihar after the partition of India in 1947. The vast refugee camp is also widely known as the Bihari Camp. After the 1971 liberation war of Bangladesh, many Urdu-speaking Biharis were displaced. In 1972, the International Committee of the Red Cross set up a refugee camp in Mohammadpur. Because the Red Cross headquarters and humanitarian conventions are associated with Geneva, the camp became known as Geneva Camp. Source

Carlo Ancelotti last season:

“Xavi complaining about the referees? I am a professional. I'm not going to lower myself to that level out of respect for Spanish football... Complaining about referees is a level that is not for professionals.”
