The teachers of the college also discussed the matter at an urgent meeting yesterday. Student leaders of the college said they found 10-12 leaflets on the table of Huq. The leaflets read: "Let's get united and vocal to protest the arrest and demand release of eminent Aleem, educationist and Ameer of Ahle Hadith Movement Dr Muhammad Asadullah Al Galib." The principal of the college said a five-member committee was formed to probe the matter and submit a report by April 7.
