5th anniversary of police atrocities at DU hall today
DU Correspondent
Today is 5th anniversary of police atrocities on women students at Shamsunnahar Hall of Dhaka University, but no student organisations have taken up any programmes to mark the day because of emergency.On this day in 2002, the police stormed into the hall at dead of night, dragged students from the beds, verbally abused and assaulted them, leaving more than 50 students injured. The police swooped on them as they were protesting against illegal stay of some Jatiyatabadi Chhatra Dal (JCD) leaders at the hall. In a statement yesterday, Bangladesh Chhatra Union (BCU) demanded exemplary punishment to the policemen responsible.
