Staff Correspondent
The National Association of Unesco Clubs in Bangladesh urged the government to take steps for sending Dhaka University teacher Rumana Manzur to Singapore or London for better treatment. Mahbubuddin Chowdhury, secretary general of the organisation, in a written statement made the call yesterday. He requested the Women and Children Affairs Ministry, DU authorities, philanthropists and NGOs to come forward to help Rumana go abroad. He also demanded exemplary punishment to Rumana's husband Hasan Sayeed Sumon for the barbaric torture, in which she lost her eyesight.
