DHAKA, July 18, 2022 (BSS) - The High Court (HC) today ordered judicial probe 
into the humiliation of Mirzapur United Degree College teacher Swapan Kumar 
Biswas in Narail.

A High Court division bench of Justice Bhishmadev Chakrabortty and Justice SM 
Maniruzzaman passed the order, asking Narail Chief Judicial Magistrate to 
probe the matter within next six weeks. The court also issued a rule in this 
regard.

Senior Jurist Advocate ZI Khan Panna and Barrister Anik R Haque moved a writ 
petition, which was filed on July 4, before the court.

A Hindu student of the college allegedly made a post on Facebook supporting 
suspended BJP spokesperson Nupur Sharma on June 18. A group of locals 
including some students spread rumours that acting principal Swapan Kumar 
Biswas had sided with the student and created ruckus in and around the 
college. They torched three motorcycles inside the college premises. 

Later, police came at the scene to rescue the teacher, but the some people 
put a garland of shoes around the neck of Swapan Kumar Biswas and forced him 
to plead for mercy in presence of the law enforcers.
