JU students continue protests

Jahangirnagar University (JU) unit of the left leaning student organizations, under the banner of Jahangirnagar Sanskritik Jote, continued their protest program demanding removal of the university proctor Professor Tapan Kumar.

The association made the demand and declared their programs at a press conference on the campus on April 25, 2016 evening alleging that the proctor was the mastermind of the police attack on students at the university's Prantik gate in the morning.

The Ashulia police beat up some leaders and activists of Progotishil Chhatra Jote and arrested 11 in the morning, as they blocked the Dhaka-Aricha highway to observe a half-day strike, demanding trial in Tonu murder case. The protestors alleged that the proctor ordered the police to arrest them for dispersing their gathering.
