| [Bangla Daily Star] Six activists of Bangladesh Chhatra League unit of Rajshahi University have been temporarily expelled last night on charges of killing Nasirullah Nasim, a fellow activist following a row over Iftar token. Prof M Abdus Sobhan, vice-chancellor of RU, told The Daily Star that the university's syndicate made the decision at a meeting that lasted four hours. "We made the decision following a probe report and sent the findings to the university's disciplinary board," said Sobhan, who chaired the meeting. The temporary expulsion will be effective until the board makes a decision. The six are: Zahirul Islam of Public Administration, Lutfur Rahman of Zoology, Zahidul Islam of Social Work, Toufiqul Islam of Bangla, Ruhul Amin of Political Science and Moshiur Rahman of Psychology departments. All of them were loyal to former BCL RU unit president Awal Kabir Joy who was expelled. After the expulsion, Joy told reporters that neither he nor the BCL RU unit had any relation with the students expelled for murdering Nasim. Nasirullah Nasim, a fourth-year student of the History department and a resident of Shah Makhdoom Hall, was mercilessly beaten up and shoved off from the first floor of the dormitory following a row over Iftar token on August 15, the National Mourning Day. He died on August 23 after battling death for eight days. After Nasim's death, central unit of BCL expelled unit president Joy as well as general secretary Majedul Islam Opu, whom Nasim was loyal to. A five-member committee was formed following Nasim's death headed by Prof Ruhul Amin of Political Science department. The committee investigated the matter and submitted its report on September 2 where it mentioned the names of six students responsible for the murder. |
