BCL Attack on Teachers at BAU: Student arrested

A student of Bangladesh Agricultural University (BAU) was arrested yesterday in connection with the attack on a teachers' procession on August 8 and the proctor's residence the day before by Bangladesh Chhatra League (BCL) activists.

The arrestee Ahmed Habib is a student of agriculture faculty, said police.

Meanwhile, a BCL delegation led by BCL central General Secretary Siddique Nazmul Alam visited BAU yesterday to inquire into the incident.

The team talked to teachers belonging to Ganotantrik Shikkhak Forum and pro-Awami League teachers and BAU unit BCL leaders and activists.

On August 7, two BCL activists were arrested on charge of snatching a mobile phone set on the campus.

Following the incident, over 100 BCL activists attacked the residence of BAU Proctor Dr Abu Hadi Noor Ali Khan on the campus. A section of teachers the next day brought out a procession protesting the attack.

At one stage, some BCL men attack the procession, leaving at least three teachers injured. Later, the BCL men also ransacked the university's administrative building.
