Five activists of Jagannath University Jatiyatabadi Chhatra Dal were injured critically as they clashed with the university unit Bangladesh Chhatra League students and police on the campus Tuesday morning.
The Kotwali police also picked up four JCD activists and one Dhaka College student from the spot.
The police said more than a hundred JnU JCD activists brought out a procession, led by their convener Golam Mawla Sahin, on the campus at about 11:00am, demanding immediate release of JCD central committee organising secretary Anisur Rahman Talukdar, who was arrested by the police on Monday during a general strike called by opposition Bangladesh Nationalist Party.
When the procession reached arts faculty building the Chhatra League activists, with the help of police, carried out an attack on it and injured at least five persons, the witnesses said.
Injured Shawkat Ara Urmi, Mousumi Mou, Aslam, Sohel Shikdar and Sabbir were admitted to a local hospital.
The police picked up the university unit Chhatra Dal joint convener Al-Ashraf Mamun, Mahbubur Rahman, Ziaul Hossain and Sohel and Dhaka College student Asadullah on charges of spreading violence on the campus.
The police also said Asadullah might be an activist of Chhatra Shibir.
JnU JCD convener Golam Mawla complained that the police and BCL activists attack the precession without plausible reason.
Kotwali police subinspector Md Mahmudul Haque brushed aside the complaint and said the police just tried to stop the clash.
JnU acting proctor Ahsok Kumar Saha said that JCD activists brought out the procession without permission from the authorities concerned and the police picked up four of them as they tried to vandalise university buses.
