Assault on teacher

On September 13 a former DU teacher Professor Mahbubullah was assaulted by some unidentified miscreants on the Supreme Court premises. He was there for attending a book launching ceremony. The perpetrators punched him heavily, hit him on the upper part of eyes and knocked him down.

One couldn't even imagine 20 or 30 years back that a primary school teacher would be assaulted, let alone a university teacher. Teachers had always been respected in our society. A teacher shouldn't and couldn't be treated like this no matter which political camp he belonged. I think Professor Mahbubullah rightly said, “I realise no civilised person can live in this country.”
