"Dhaka University authorities have lodged a case while SB filed another case. Altogether there are four cases relating to the campus incidents in past few days," Maruf Hossain Sardar, deputy commissioner of Dhaka Metropolitan Police or DMP, Ramna Division, told bdnews24.com on Wednesday.
He declined to give further details such as the extent of damage mentioned there.
Dhaka University’s Chief Security Officer SM Kamrul Hasan said he accused over 100 unidentified people in the case he started over the attack on the VC’s house.
The charges against the accused include trespassing, and damaging and looting properties worth around Tk 15 million, he said.
Kamrul also alleged in the case that his motorcycle was torched and his wireless handset was snatched away near the Doel Chattar.
They brought allegations of blocking street at two separate spots on the campus and obstruction to police duty.
Protesters against the 56 percent quota system in the government jobs fought pitched battles with police in Shahbagh square. Police used batons and teargas to clear the busy roads on Sunday. Several thousand demonstrations then continued their protests on the Dhaka University campus.
Vice-Chancellor Prof Md Akhtaruzzaman told reporters on Tuesday morning the masked vandals wanted to kill him to create chaos to destabilise the government and the country."
Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina told parliament later on Wednesday "those who were involved in vandalism and looting must be tried”.
The quota reform protesters, however, said none of them was involved in the attack on the VC’s house. It was an attack by the outsiders to sabotage the ongoing movements, they claimed.
