Dr. Mohammad Abdul Wahid Chowdhury, a zoology professor at Chittagong University known for his pro-Awami League stance, has drawn widespread criticism after posting a Facebook message mocking the July uprising and making disparaging remarks about members of the interim government. The post, published on July 3, quickly went viral on social media. Earlier, on June 20, he had made another post criticizing former interim government advisers, including Dr. Muhammad Yunus, Dr. Asif Nazrul, and Syeda Rizwana Hasan.
Dr. Chowdhury previously served as an assistant proctor at the university from 2021 to 2023, during which he was accused of intimidating and harassing general students by labeling them as members of the student group “Shibir.” A student named Jubayer Hossain Sohag recounted an incident from August 2022, claiming he was verbally abused and threatened by Dr. Chowdhury after participating in a campus protest.
Following the viral posts, former Chittagong University Chhatra League president Rezaul Haque Rubel publicly expressed support for Dr. Chowdhury on Facebook, calling him an icon and praising his courage. Attempts to contact Dr. Chowdhury for comment were unsuccessful.
