Cops sue 300 JU students over violence

JU Correspondent
Around 300 students of Jahangirnagar University (JU) were sued yesterday in two cases filed in connection with Thursday's violence on and outside the campus.
Ashulia police recorded one case naming six students and around 100 unnamed on charges of attacking the on-duty policemen and obstructing them in the discharge of their duties during the violence, said Badrul Alam, offi-cer-in-charge of Ashulia Police Station. Another case was lodged with Savar Police Station against 12 named and around 200 unnamed students on the same charges.
No arrests were made until filing of the report around 12:30am.
On Thursday night, Kazi Johra Begum, mother of Tahmidul Islam Likhon Likhon, filed a case with Savar Police Station against 10 students including Mahbub Riaz, Ashrafuzzaman Liton and Shadikul Islam Nahid for stabbing her son.
Violence erupted on the campus after some unruly youths stabbed Likhon, a student of economics department and an activist of president-secretary faction of JU unit Chhatra League, near the gate No 1 of JU around 9:30pm on Wednesday.
Regarding the campus violence and police firing on students, the JU authorities will hold a press conference at the Senate Flail today. Vice-Chancellor Prof Anwar Hossain will brief newsmen at the press conference slated for noon, said a university release.
A five-member probe committee, formed on Thursday, will start its work today to investigate the rowdyism. The panel will submit its report within three weeks.
Students vacated their dormitories yesterday after the authorities on Thursday declared to shut the university until August 25.
Police were deployed on the campus as well as at some key points on the highway near the university to maintain law and order, said JU ProctorTapan Kumar Saha.
In protest against the attack on Likhon on Wednesday, students brought out a procession on the campus around 11:00pm.
Minutes later, police entered Mir Mosharraf Hossain Flail and tried to arrest Nahid, a third year student of anthropology department.
Police fired blank shots when other students resisted their attempt to arrest Nahid. At one stage, police shot rubber bullets and shotgun shells injuring at least five.
Students took to the streets soon after Wednesday midnight and put barricades on Dhaka-Aricha highway, creating about 12-km tailback. They also vandalised 15 vehicles.
The blockades were lifted around 3:45pm on Thursday.
Likhon has been undergoing treatment at Enam Medical College Hospital in Savar.
