Dhaka University professor Adib Shahriar Zaman was assaulted on Friday afternoon after protesting against a bus that was unnecessarily stopped for an extended period to pick up passengers. The incident occurred on a road opposite Bangla School in Mirpur 11. According to the professor, the driver and conductor of Mirpur Super Link (Bus No. 36) attacked him in public. In response, university students took at least five buses of the same company to the campus, vowing not to release them until the accused driver and conductor were identified.
