Four student organizations at Jahangirnagar University—JAKSU, Chhatra Dal, Chhatra Shibir, and Chhatra Shakti—have strongly condemned incidents of harassment, threats, and attempts to incite mobs against journalists performing their professional duties on campus. The statements were issued on Tuesday, May 19, following reports that some students had verbally abused and intimidated journalists over news coverage.
In separate press releases, the organizations described the actions as unacceptable and contrary to the principles of free expression and democratic values. JAKSU leaders emphasized that campus journalists play a vital role in exposing irregularities and protecting student rights, while Chhatra Dal and Chhatra Shibir called for responsible behavior and a safe environment for free and objective journalism. Chhatra Shakti also denounced threats to journalists’ careers and urged immediate administrative action.
All four groups demanded a fair and impartial investigation by the university administration, exemplary punishment for those involved, and effective measures to ensure journalists’ safety and prevent similar incidents in the future.
