Staff Reporter :
DMP Commissioner Asaduzzaman Mia on Thursday said that those who attacked the residence of Dhaka University’s Vice Chancellor during the Quota-reform demonstration are professionals. “No one is above the law. The attack on VC residence is unexpected and we are extremely sad,” the DMP Commissioner said in response to a query by journalists during a briefing on Pahela Baishakh security measures.
“The way the attack was carried out and the CCTV box and hard disk were removed seems to be the work of professionals. The senior officials and expert law enforcers are investigating the case,” the commissioner said.
Those who were involved in the incident will be prosecuted under the purview of law, the commissioner added.
Yesterday, four cases were filed against a huge number of unidentified people on charge of vandalism, arson and obstructing lawmen to perform their duty during demonstrations in Dhaka over quota reform in the government jobs recruitment.
Students under the banner of Bangladesh Sadharan Chhatra Odhikar Sangrakkhan Parishad launched the movement on February 17 to press home their five-point demand, including reducing the quota privilege to 10 percent from 56.
