2010 RU Violence
Victims demand punishment to Shibir cadres
Victims of 9 February, 2010 violence at Rajshahi University (RU) at a rally yesterday demanded exemplary punishment to the Shibir cadres who hacked BCL worker Faruque to death and unleashed attack on them.
On February 9, Faruque Hossain, a resident of Shah Makhdum Hall and a masters student of Mathematics department fell victim to Shibir attack.
His body was dumped in a manhole. Around 100 others were injured while the Shibir men cut tendons of four of them.
At a rally on the campus yesterday, the victims called upon the government to ensure punishment of the Shibir culprits.
They alleged that the probe into the brutal murder of Faruque Hossain remained stalled for a year because of indifference of the authorities concern.
Criticising the role of the law enforcers, they alleged that police are yet to unearth the motive behind the armed attacks and threatened to launch a tougher movement in case the Shibir cadres go unpunished.
They also called upon the government and the university authorities to impose ban on Jammat-Shibir politics on the campus.
