A teacher of Jagannath University (JnU) has been suspended for sexually harassing female students.
The authorities took the action against Mir Mosharraf Hossain (widely known Rajib Mir), assistant professor of the Mass Communication and Journalism Department of the university, after the allegations were primarily proved against him, JnU Teachers’ Association president Sarker Ali Akkas told dainikshiksha.com.
He also said eight female students of the department lodged separate complaints against the teacher to the university authorities.
A five-member committee was formed with the JnU Teachers’ Association president as its head.
The committee submitted its report to the vice-chancellor on 12 April. During investigation, the committee found the allegations true.
