Panic grips BCL leaders
Panic has gripped many leaders of Bangladesh Chhatra League (BCL) who were involved in different anti-organisational activities including instigation of violence on Dhaka University (DU) campus following reports that law enforcement agencies have prepared a list of those leaders.
Only few BCL central leaders are now seen on DU campus since two central BCL leaders were arrested by Rab on April 13 on charge of disrupting academic atmosphere on the campus.
The BCL men whose names could be on the list are now moving very cautiously and do not go outside the campus.
Sources in the government said Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has already directed the home ministry to take stern action against BCL men who are involved or would conspire to destabilise the campus situation.
The home ministry in the meantime has directed all law enforcement agencies including elite force Rab to take action against perpetrators accordingly.
Rab officials as per direction have also prepared a short list of some BCL suspects for disrupting academic atmosphere.
At a meeting with BCL top leaders on Tuesday, Hasina warned of stern action including a possible "five-year jail" for those who would 'try' or be involved in campus violence.
The government has faced severe criticism from different quarters following indiscriminate campus violence involving BCL men on different campus.
