A group of unruly students identifying themselves as members of Bangladesh Chhatra League (BCL) demanded a large sum of money and allegedly beat up the principal of Alokdia Amaresh Basu College and ransacked the office in Sadar upazila of Magura on Sunday, reports UNB.
On information, police rushed to the spot and brought the situation under control, said additional police superintendent of Magura Tariqul Islam.
When contacted, Mostafa Faruq, principal of the college, alleged that some students identifying themselves as BCL men had been threatening him for the past few days demanding a good amount of money.
They launched the pre-planned attack as I did not meet their demand, he said.
Meanwhile, some students of the college said that the managing committee of the college along with its principal took Tk 70,00,000 from seven candidates over fresh teachers appointment in 2014 but no one has been appointed till now. The authorities also did not return their money yet, the students also alleged.
There is a dispute between two groups over internal matters of the college, said police official Tariqul Islam. He, however, did not clarify the disputed matter.
