Protest not permitted

A rally protesting controversial activities of a section of BCL leaders of Eden Mohila College has been suspended as police did not give the protestors permission.

The protest rally of a group of guardians was supposed to be held around 11:30am in front of the college yesterday.

Rakhal Raha, one of the organisers, announced the suspension in a Facebook post, saying that the officer-in-charge of Lalbagh Police Station asked them not to hold the programme.

Contacted, OC MM Morshed of the police station said, "The organisers did not take any permission from police before announcing their programme... We requested them to postpone it on security grounds."

Recently, a group of expelled BCL leaders brought some serious allegations, including being forced to do unethical work by blackmailing female students, trading of hall seats, extortion, and torture against the president and secretary of the college unit of BCL.

On September 25, at a press conference, the two denied the allegations.
