Protests held at DU over BSMRUST student attack


Bangladesh Chhatra Odhikar Parishad staged a candle-lit procession protesting ruling party student front Bangladesh Chhatra League's attack on the students of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman University of Science and Technology (BSMRUST).

The rally was held in front of anti-terrorist Raju monument  on Friday night.

Leaders and activists of the DU branch of Chhatra Odhikar Parishad were present at the rally.

 Bin Yamin Mollah, president of Chhatra Odhikar Parishad DU unit, said, "We had an indoor meeting in Chattogram on Friday.  When we returned from the meeting, our leaders were attacked."

On the other hand, general students of Dhaka University staged another candle-lit rally around 8-8.45 pm at the same place protesting the rape of BSMRUST students and BCL attacks on the protesters of the rape.

At the rally, Shamsunnahar Hall, former VP of Parliament Tasnim Afroze Emi said, "Rape seems to have become a public issue all around the country but there is no trial for rape and torture in the country."

 She urged people of all walks of life to be aware so that no girl has become the victim of oppression anymore.

Umama Fatema, a student in the Department of Biochemistry, said, " We gathered here to demand justice for the gang-rape that took place in BSMRUST and to demand a fair trial for the attacks on students protesting for justice."
