Md Mohaiminul Islam, a student of the 50th batch of the Department of Geological Sciences at Jahangirnagar University (JU), has gone missing.
Mohaiminul, from Hazra Bari in Melandah upazila of Jamalpur, was last seen boarding a bus in front of his dormitory at 3:08pm on Sunday, according to university administration sources.
He is a resident student of Room 110 in Block A of the hall. Despite attempts to contact him, his whereabouts remain unknown.
A general diary was filed at Savar police station, and Dhaka District Superintendent of Police Shamima Parvin was informed of the incident.
In a separate notice, the university’s Public Relations Office said a “suicide note” had been found in the student’s room. As the note reportedly mentions negligence by the department, the JU administration has formed an investigation committee.
