Dhaka University (DU) has temporarily suspended a student over his alleged involvement in a cocktail explosion on the campus and formed a five-member committee to investigate the incident.
The suspended student, Mohammad Raihan Khan, is a student of the Department of Tourism and Hospitality Management from the 2022–23 academic session.
The university took the decision under the relevant provisions of the Dhaka University Ordinances and Regulations, following allegations of his direct involvement in the incident.
The five-member investigation committee is headed by DU Proctor Professor Md Ishrafil Ratan.
Its other members are Professor Dr Enamul Haque Sajib, Professor Shantu Barua, Dr Ali Mohammad Kawsar and Md Amzad Hossain.
The committee has been asked to submit its findings within seven working days.
Raihan was a resident student of Bijoy Ekattor Hall and is from Sabujbagh area of Khagrachhari Municipality.
Further action will be taken based on the investigation committee’s report, university authorities said.
The temporary suspension is an administrative measure pending the investigation and does not constitute a final finding of responsibility.
