The victim who was ousted from his hall by a group of activists of Islamic University unit of Bangladesh Chhatra League (BCL), the student organisation of the ruling Awami League, returned to the campus on Monday.
Mahadi Hasan, a third-year student of finance and banking department of the university, returned to the campus in the afternoon three days after he was ousted from the Lalon Shah Hall of the university.
The BCL men ousted Mahadi almost one month after a fresher of the same department was tortured and humiliated by ruling party-backed student body’s IU unit vice-president Shanjida Chowdhury Ontora and her four cohorts at Deshratna Sheikh Hall on February 12 night.
Returning to the campus, Mahadi sought cooperation of the university administration for his security measures.
IU Lalon Shah Hall provost Professor M Obaydul Islam said that the victim who was ousted from the hall returned to the hall.
They would take necessary action against those found involved in ousting the student from the hall after getting reports from the probe body formed by the hall administration, he added.
IU proctor Professor M Shahadat Hossain Azad told UNB that they would assist Mahadi like other students on the campus so that none could create chaos regarding the issue.
Earlier, a group of IU BCL unit activists, including Torikul Islam Torun and Razu of Bangla department and Fahim Faisal of development studies department, loyal to IU BCL general secretary Nasim Ahmed Joy, asked Mahadi to meet them.
Mahadi met the BCL activists who then forced him to leave the room.
They also threw his valuables, including books and belongings, out of the room.
Mahadi later lodged a written complaint against the BCL activists with the hall provost in this connection on Saturday.
The Lalon Shah Hall administration formed a three-member probe body led by the hall’s house tutor Professor M Helal Uddin to investigate the incident on Sunday.
