The team carried photocopies of several hundred files, documents and written complaints by RU teachers and staff to Dhaka, sources said yesterday.

Before leaving, probe body convener Prof Muhammad Mahbub Ullah told newsmen that his team detected corruption, irregularities and mismanagement in the university.

"After examination, we will submit a neutral report to government soon", he said.

During the probe, the team interviewed deans of faculties, heads of departments, teachers, directors of institutes, hall provosts and leaders of officers' and employees' associations.

But the Progressive Teachers Society (PTS), a body of pro-Awami League teachers, alleged that the probe body members were appointed controversially during the tenure of BNP-Jamaat alliance government.

Many teachers, officials and employees alleged that they could not talk to the probe body members as they were surrounded by teachers aligned with BNP and Jamaat-e-Islami, who also monitored intervierw seekers.

PTS convener Sayed Akter told this correspondent that the probe body did not contact any pro-Awami League (AL) teacher for interview.
