Humayun Khan Panni (died 11 May 2006) was a Bangladeshi politician and deputy speaker of parliament from 1991 to 1996.[1] [2]
Humayun Khan Panni was born in the early 1920s, to the Bengali Muslim family known as the Zamindars of Karatia. His ancestors were Pashtuns belonging to the Panni tribe, and had migrated from Afghanistan to Bengal in the 16th century where they became culturally assimilated.[3]
During the 1991 Bangladeshi general election, Panni won the Tangail-8 seat as a Bangladesh Nationalist Party candidate. He served for a second term after the February 1996 Bangladeshi general election.[4]
Panni's wife was murdered on 19 May 2003 in their residence in Dhanmondi.[5]
