The students of Drama and Dramatics Department of Jahangirnagar University (JU) demanded expulsion of a teacher of the department for harassing four students of the same department.

To press home their demand, the students of the department brought out a procession and submitted a memorandum to the Vice-Chancellor of the University demanding expulsion of the Associate Prof M Sanowar Hossain (Ahmed Sani), chairman of the Department.

In the memorandum, the students complained that the Associate Prof M Sanowar Hossain (Ahmed Sani), Chairman of the Department sexually harassed four female students of the same department under the academic session 2004-2005.

The victim students complained to the other teachers of the department but didn't get any result.

While contacted, the JU VC Prof Muniruzzaman told this correspondent that we will form a inquiry committee to probe the allegation and take action as per the report of the committee.

It may be mentioned M Tanvir Ahmed of Business Administration and M Golam Mostafa of Bangla Department were expelled as they abused some female students.
