A leader of the Bangladesh Chhatra League (BCL) yesterday was sentenced to three months of imprisonment for teasing a college girl, who is a daughter of a local lawmaker.
The convict was Ashikur Rahman, BCL president of Satkhira Government College unit and son of Hafizur Rahman Sazu of Khezurdanga village in Sadar upazila.
Some students of the college alleged that BCL leaders Mithun Banarjee, Abu Taher and Ashikur used to tease female students on the campus.
They said they had informed about it to the administration several times, but the administration did not take any step against the stalkers.
When the students of the college earlier tried to protest the BCL men, they tortured them brutally.
Emdad Sheikh, officer-in-charge of Satkhira police station, said police arrested Ashikur as he was teasing the girl while she was going to the college on the day.
On Sunday, the girl also filed a complaint against Ashikur, the OC added.
The police produced the youth before a mobile court led by Magistrate Munira Parveen.
Later, the court sentenced him three months of jail.
Over the incident, BCL activists beat up a Chhatra Moitree leader leaving him critically injured in the afternoon.
The administration rescued him and sent to Satkhira Sadar Hospital.
Professor Liakat Parvez, the principal, confirmed the incident.
