Finance Minister AMA Muhith has ordered the authorities concerned to arrest the unscrupulous student leaders for looting around Tk70 lakh through illegal admission-related business at Madan Mohan College in Sylhet.
A team led by college unit Bangladesh Chhatra League President Arun Debnath Sagar vandalised the principal’s room on January 26. A case was filed against Sagar and 15 others centring the incident.
Muhith is the president of the college management committee.
The minister yesterday evening visited different rooms including the damaged room of Principal Abul Fateh Fattah. Vice-Principal Shorbani Arjun, member of college management committee Emad Ullah Shahidul Islam, police officials and others were also present at that time.
Muhith said: “This is the real picture of dirty politics. Law will run in its own way.” He added that the culprits would be punished under the existing law and police have to take legal action soon.
A six-point memorandum was submitted to the minister on behalf of college staff. On September 24 last year, the minister scolded the student leaders for doing illegal business.
