WHAT HAPPENED

Shyamal Kanti Bhakta, headmaster of Piyar Sattar Latif High School in Bandar area, was beaten up by a mob and made to squat holding his earlobes in the presence of local Jatiya Party lawmaker AKM Selim Osman last Friday.
The victim said the locals were provoked by false allegations that he had made disparaging statements about religion and that some teachers held a grudge against him for not meeting their unfair demands.
A video clip of the incident has gone viral on social media, triggering public outrage and a firestorm of protests on social networking sites.
Infuriated, Facebook users began uploading photos in their profiles, showing they were holding their ears in a token of apology shown to the headmaster with a “sorry sir” statement.
