PROBE BODY
The university authorities have formed a four-member committee, led by Prof Swadhin Sen of the archaeology department, to investigate Shamim’s killing .
They also formed a seven-member committee to probe the attacks on students on July 15 and 17 and the attack on the house of Mehedi Iqbal, an associate professor of geography and environment department.
Shamim was beaten up on Wednesday afternoon by some JU students for allegedly leading an attack on July 15 on students demonstrating under the banner of Anti-discrimination Student Movement. When he was taken to the proctor’s office later on Wednesday, angry students assaulted him again before handing him over to police.
Police later moved Shamim to Savar Gonoshasthaya Hospital where he breathed his last.
During interrogation by police at the proctor’s office, Shamim admitted his involvement in the July 15 attack and disclosed the names of the others involved, said Proctor AKM Rashidul Alam.
“The body was sent to Shaheed Suhrawardy Medical College morgue for an autopsy. We are trying to identify the perpetrators through analysing video footage,” Abu Bakkar Siddique, OC of Ashulia Police Station, told The Daily Star.
Meanwhile, some JU students under the banner of Anti-Discrimination Student Movement took out a procession on the campus around 11:00am yesterday protesting the killing of Shamim.

Speaking at the rally, student leaders demanded punishment for Shamim’s killers and ban on all kinds of politics by students, teachers, and employees on the campus.
