2 hurt in RU BCL factional clash

At least 2 activists of Banglsdesh Chhatra Legue, Rajshahi University unit, were injured in a factional clash on Saturday night over establishing supremacy on the campus.

Saddam Hossain Tipu, president of Ghatak Dalal Nirmul Committee, RU unit, filed a case with the Motihar police against 4 BCL activists in this connection.

The accused were Parvez, a master's student of Islamic history department, Raju and Palash, master's students of public administration and Emdad, an MBA student of management of the university.

On Saturday, BCL activists Parves, Palash, Raju and Emdad, residents of Shaheed Habibur Rahman Hall, called the plaintiff, resident of the same hall, to discuss politics centring the hall.

Parves and Tipu engaged in a scuffle at the meet. Then two factions, led by Parves and Tipu respectively, locked in a severe clash with lethal weapons that left both of them injured.

The police brought the situation under control.

The injured were admitted to Rajshahi Medical College Hospital.

When contacted, Parves alleged that Tipu had long been collecting toll from the hall students.

'I just called him to request not to harass the general students but he attacked me along with his associates and broke my right hand,' Parves added.

On the other hand, Saddam Hossain Tipu said, 'Parves along with his friends came to beat me and I resisted only.'

BCL RU unit president Ahmed Ali said the incident might have resulted from their personal enmity.

'If any allegation against them was proved, stern action would be taken against the miscreants,' he added.

RU proctor CM Zakaria told New Age that effective measures would be taken after investigation against them who tried to make the situation unstable.

A case was filed with the Motihar police.

The Motihar police officer-in-charge, Akbar Ali, confirmed the filing of case and said they would take action according to the decision of RU authorities.
