November 29, 2016 - Mymensingh college teacher Abul Kalam Azad could have survived had police allowed an ambulance in the college to take him to a hospital, said his colleagues.
The assistant professor of Botany at Fulbaria Degree College had complained of chest pain soon after he was beaten by police at the college in Fulbaria town on Sunday afternoon. His colleagues called an ambulance, but it was not allowed to enter the college.
“With him, we sneaked out of the college through a back gate and hid in a house for almost an hour. Police used batons on anyone they met near the main entrance to the college,” said college teacher SM Abul Hashem.
Azad was then taken to a three-wheeler stand on a rickshaw van. A CNG-run three-wheeler carried him to a private clinic, some 10 kilometres away from the college, about one and a half hours after he was beaten, the teacher added.
The 55-year-old teacher was taken to the hospital around 3:30pm. He died around half an hour later.
However, OC Rifat Khan of Fulbaria Police Station claimed cops did not see any ambulance in the college area during the clash.
Azad of Nandail upazila and Safor Ali, 65, of Fulbaria were killed and over 100 others injured when police swooped on a demonstration by teachers, students and staff of the college in Fulbaria on Sunday.
Witnesses said demonstrators brought out a procession on the campus demanding nationalisation of the college. All of a sudden around 1:00pm, a police team entered the college and beat up demonstrators indiscriminately.
The bodies of the two were handed over to their relatives after autopsies at Mymensingh Medical College yesterday. The two were later buried at their village homes. (Article continues with more info.)
