Dhaka College authorities have formed a three-member investigation committee to probe an incident of student assault and unrest at the Dakshinayan dormitory. The committee was announced on Wednesday, July 8, through an official notice signed by Principal Professor A.K.M. Elias and Chemistry Department Professor Dr. Md. Arshad Hossain Chowdhury, who serves as the committee convener. The investigation concerns a June 27 late-night altercation reportedly triggered by a dispute over seat allocation in room 303 of the dormitory.

The notice requested written statements, video clips, and other relevant evidence from students involved in the incident. It also stated that written testimonies and interviews would be collected on July 9 between 10 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. in room 30 of the Chemistry Department. According to the report, the disputed seat had been vacant for some time and was allegedly used intermittently by different students with the support of a student leader. The accused parties have not yet issued any formal statement.

College authorities said the actual causes and responsibilities will be determined after the committee submits its report.
