JU BCL men beat student

The activists of Jahangirnagar University Bangladesh Chhatra League, the ruling Awami League's associate body for the students, beat a student on the campus on Monday.

The victim Pinak Pani Bhattacharya is an English student of batch 37 of the university.

Witnesses said about 10 Chhatra League activists, led by the unit's joint secretary Sarkar Azgar Ali, beat him at the transport office premises.

Pinak Pani was taken to the university medical centre and later shifted to Enam Medical College Hospital at Savar as his condition was critical.

The victim said, 'It was inhuman and the Chhatra League activists just abused their political power.' He also demanded punishment of the BCL men.

Sarkar Azgar Ali admitted the assault on Pinak Pani and he told New Age, 'Pinak Pani was punished as he misbehaved with me when I asked him of his identity.'

JU proctor Arzu Mia said that they would take necessary action if the complaints were proved.
