Mustafa was sent into retirement in June 1991.[4] Muhammad Muhaiminul Islam replaced him as the chief of naval staff.[4] The chief of Air Staff Vice Marshal Mumtazuddin Ahmed was also replaced.[5] This was believed to be in response to the ships and aeroplanes of the Bangladesh Navy and Bangladesh Air Force being damaged in the 1991 Bangladesh cyclone.[6] All major ships of the Bangladesh Navy were sunk or immobilized.[7]
