Nurul Haque Nur, DUCSU Vice-President, has lodged a police complaint with Shahbagh Police Station mentioning two top leaders of Bangladesh Chhatra League’s Dhaka University unit led the attacks on him and his followers.

According to the complaint, DU BCL president Sonjit Chandra Das and general secretary Saddam Hussain led the attack on DUCSU VP Nur and his associates on Sunday for attempting to kill him.

Abul Hasan, officer-in-charge of Shahbagh Police Station, said DUCSU Social Service Affairs Secretary Akhtar Hossain on Tuesday lodged the complaint on behalf of Nur.

The complaint was filed naming 37 people, including leaders and activists of Bangladesh Chhatra League and Muktijuddha Mancha, he said.

The accused included DU BCL president Sonjit Chandra Das, general secretary Saddam Hussein, Muktijuddha Mancha leaders Aminul Islam Bulbul, Al Mamun, ASM Sonet and Yeasir Arafat Turjo.

The complaint will be merged with the case filed by a sub-inspector of the police station in connection with the incident, OC Abul Hasan said.

In the complaint, Nur stated that Muktijuddha Mancha leaders Aminul Islam Bulbul, Al Mamun, Yeasir Arafat Turjo and ASM Sonet came to his DUCSU room along with their supporters on Sunday around 12:00 noon and swooped on them with sticks and then left the place.

Minutes after the attack, a group of BCL men led by BCL DU unit President Sonjit Chandra Das and General Secretary Saddam Hosasin entered my room with lethal weapons and carried out another attack shutting off the lights of my room with an aim to kill me, Nur stated.

After the first argument with the Muktijuddha Mancha leaders outside the building, Nur and his supporters took shelter inside locking the main gate.

Nurul Haque Nur and 30 of his supporters were injured in the attack, the complaint reads.

Besides Sonjit and Saddam, Nur named Muktijuddha Mancha’s General Secretary Al Mamun, Office Secretary Mehedi Hasan Shanto, and its Dhaka University unit General Secretary Yasin Arafat Turjo, the three who have already been remanded in police custody over the attacks.

Police named eight people – all leaders of the Mancha – and accused 35 unidentified others in the case over the attacks.
