Yes, so there were two meetings. This one mentioned in the tweet held with all the officers of Bangladesh Army on 3rd August. It was publicly announced. Here army chief already promise army won't fire anymore.
It is been said, here one major stood and recited a verse from Quran which says, 'oh god! Don't make us complicit with the oppressors.' And everyone in the hall Including the chief of stuff said, Ameen. No doubt the atmosphere was very tense and army chief seemed nervous.
Second meeting was held in private with army high command/division commanders at Sunday evening/4th August. Here, army chief of stuff explicitly ordered not to fire on students/people under any circumstances.
