Publishers of Zafar Iqbal to hold sit-in over Sust assault today

Publishers of noted writer Prof Muhammad Zafar Iqbal will hold a sit-in at the Central Shaheed Minar today, protesting the assault on his wife Prof Yasmin Haque and other teachers on Sunday.

The publishers will hold the programme from 10:00am to 12:00pm demanding punishment of the criminals.

On Sunday, alleged BCL activists at Sylhet Shahjalal University of Science and Technology swooped on teachers during the latter's pre-scheduled demonstration to stop VC Aminul Haque Bhuiyan from entering his office.
