During the raid, the law enforcers also recovered a hit list of seven leaders and workers of the hall unit Bangladesh Chhatra League along with its action plan including attack on BCL men, one photo album, CD disks on campus violence and huge leaflets. The hall sources said around 10:30 am police aided by the hall authorities raided hall unit Shibir Secretary Shariful Islam's room, which was used as Nomani Memorial Library and recovered the 'jihadi' books. Ten Shibir-controlled rooms of the hall including the room of hall unit Shibir president Mujahidul Islam were also sealed off during the raid. In another raid, RU Ziaur Rahman Hall authorities recovered a huge amount of iron rods, some hockey sticks, stones, sticks and leaflets from another Shibir-controlled room at noon. In the afternoon, police also raided Amir Ali Hall and seized 500 Islamic books including some 'jihadi' books from 11 rooms of the dormitory. The law enforcers sealed off the rooms including the room of the hall unit Shibir president after two-hour long raid ended at 7:30 pm. Meanwhile, RU unit BCL yesterday set up an effigy of a Shibir man in front of the university central library and spat at the effigy as part of a protest programme demanding punishment to killers of BCL worker Faruque Hossain. |
