DU should investigate question paper leak

The allegation of question paper leak of Dhaka University's 'Gha' unit entrance test should not be ignored by the authorities. The apparent effort to suppress the allegation by the university authorities by publishing the results without any inquiry is not acceptable. A few perpetrators behind the leak even confessed to the Detective Branch of Police. 

The quick publication of 'Gha' unit entrance test result was done not only to sweep the allegation under the rug but also implicitly emboldens such crimes. There is a high likelihood that the allegations are true, as media reports and police investigation suggest. The authorities should at least form a committee to thoroughly investigate the allegations instead of rejecting them prematurely.
