The video, which was recorded while Fulpori Khatun of Kushtia Islami University (IU) was being tortured by some members of the university unit Chhatra League has not been recovered, even after 25 days have passed since the ragging.
However, university officials said they are trying to recover the footage of the torture.
Meanwhile, the administration filed a written complaint with the IU police station on Tuesday, for the recovery of the mobile phone after receiving a copy of the High Court's order.
IU Proctor Prof Dr Shahadat Hossain Azad said: “We have received a copy of the High Court's orders. After that, all the instructions given in it have been fully implemented. On Tuesday, the registrar of the university gave a written letter to the OC of IU police station to recover the mobile phone in which the video was recorded.”
In this regard, the officer-in-charge (OC) of IU Police Station, Annur Zaid said they have received the letter and are trying to recover the phone.
On March 1, The High Court ordered the authorities at IU in Kushtia to expel five of its students who were found to be involved in the torture and humiliation of a first-year student at Deshratno Sheikh Hasina Hall, Fulpori.
The first-year student of the finance and banking department, was tortured and humiliated by IU Chhatra League Vice President Shanjida Chowdhury Ontora and her cohorts at Deshratno Sheikh Hasina Hall on February 12.
The incident came to light after the victim left the hall and disclosed the matter to her seniors and her family members the next day.
The Chhatra League leader also threatened that she would release the video on social media if Fulpori disclosed the matter to anyone, according to the complainant.
She lodged a written complaint with the university administration, including the university proctor, student adviser and the hall provost, demanding punishment of those involved in the incident on February 14.
Two probe bodies were formed by the IU authorities and the Deshratno Sheikh Hasina Hall administration afterwards.
