A student and Jatiyatabadi Chhatra Dal worker, Zillur Rahman, has been accused of assaulting Ansar member Abul Hasan at the main gate of Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University. The incident occurred on Tuesday afternoon after Hasan asked Rahman, who was entering the campus by rickshaw, to show identification. CCTV footage of the incident circulated on social media on Wednesday, prompting discussion.

University sources said Hasan asked Rahman to identify himself, and requested his ID card after he said he was a student. An argument followed, and Rahman allegedly slapped the Ansar member. CCTV footage reportedly shows Hasan did not resist during the incident. Hasan said Rahman grabbed his uniform collar and slapped him five to six times after being asked whether he was lying about his identity.

Rahman described the incident as a misunderstanding, saying he later spoke with Hasan and that the matter was mutually settled. Proctor Dr Md Arfan Ali said the administration would bring both sides together to verify the facts and take necessary action. Student leader Ahmedul Kabir Tapas said the accused student holds no organisational post.
