Nur and his associates started the protest programme around 7:30pm after they came under attack at the SM Hall while protesting against the assault of a student, Farid Hasan, by BCL activists. Proctor AKM Golam Rabbani and the hall’s Provost Mahbubul Alam Joarder did not respond to the DUCSU VP’s phone calls for help when the BCL activists confined them to the hall, Nur alleged. The proctor sent some members of his team later but they failed to rescue Nur, Farid, and other students. Nur alleged the BCL activists kicked and threw punches at the protesters from the back even when they were coming out. The BCL workers hurled abuses at some female students who went to the hall after hearing about the confinement of Nur and others, he added.
