Clash at DU
We are deeply shocked to see the news of the death of DU student Abu Bakar on 3rd February. Abu Bakar Siddique, a third year Islamic History student, died in Dhaka Medical College Hospital at around 9:30am. He was injured during clashes between two BCL groups. From the online newspapers we got to know that he was a meritorious student studying heart and soul to become first so that he could be a DU teacher. We have lost this boy.
One group is claiming that he was not active in politics, another group is claiming that he was a BCL activist and their supporter. The Honourable VC termed it very unfortunate.
I would like to request the leaders of the BCL to visit the home of Abu Bakar and meet his family. Just imagine what a disaster it has been for the family!
