"We hope to submit the charge-sheet in the case shortly. Police are working to ensure that the charge-sheet is flawless," he said.

He was speaking at a media briefing in the Secretariat on Thursday amid calls to hand out the capital punishment to the perpetrators by student protesters of BUET.

The disgruntled students have also demanded that the charge-sheet be formally published.

"A probe will be conducted to determine why the incident occurred and all other relevant factors. You've recently heard that we've identified those who were involved in the incident using security camera footage," said Asaduzzaman.

"But if there are others involved then we'll catch them too. The prime minister spoke about it in no uncertain terms."
