Fazilatunnesa Hall
Probe body submits report to VC


The six-member probe committee investigating the July 17 incident at Begum Fazilatunnesa Mujib Hall submitted its final report to the vice-chancellor (VC) yesterday.

Prof Siddiqur Rahman, member secretary of the inquiry committee, said "We have submitted the report today (Monday)." He however refused to give details about the report.

The VC Prof SMA Faiz told The Daily Star that they would discuss the report at the Syndicate meeting today at 8:00pm.

A member of the probe committee told The Daily Star that they have found some of the female students as well as at least two house tutors responsible for the incident. "We have suggested the authorities to take action against them to bring back stability in the hall," the member added preferring anonymity.

A student of the hall told The Daily Star last night that if the authorities take measure against any student, they would leave the hall. "We refuse to stand down from our stance," she added.
