DU suspends two students

Dhaka University authorities suspended two students on Monday for their involvement in illegal activities, reports news agency UNB.

The suspended students are Tanjir Arafat Tushar, a student of Department of International Relations of 2017-18 academic session. He is also a resident at Kabi Jashim Uddin Hall of Dhaka University.

The other suspended student, Rahul Roy, is a student of the Law department of 2016-17 academic session and he is a resident student of Jagannath Hall.

Tanjir Arafat Tushar was posted as joint general secretary of Bangladesh Chhatra League’s Kabi Jashim Uddin Hall unit and Rahul Roy was vice-president of Jagannath Hall BCL unit.

The temporarily suspended students were asked to give a valid answer within the next seven working days on “why they would not be expelled for lifetime.”

Asked about the matter, DU proctor professor AKM Golam Rabbani told UNB that those students were involved in extortion, looting and abusing others. On the other hand, there are charges against them in the police station.

“As they violated the university’s disciplinary codes, we have decided to suspend them from the university,” he added.
