At least 14 people were injured as clashes between two factions of the Bangladesh Chhatra League took place following a concert at the Dhaka University campus on Thursday night. Another spell of brawls occurred on Friday.
It is reported that the clashes took place between followers of BCL General Secretary Sheikh Wali Asif Enan and DU BCL General Secretary Tanbir Hasan Shaikat.
The two leaders held a meeting at Madhur Canteen on Friday.
"An incident happened over some misunderstanding among leaders and activists. We resolved the matter," Shaikat told reporters.
There was also a brief skirmish between the two groups during today`s meeting between the two leaders.
Thursday night`s clashes took place on the premises of Jagannath Hall over a trivial matter during a concert around 10:45pm.
Chhatra League President Saddam Husaain and its General Secretary Enan along with DU BCL President Mazharul Kabir Shayan and its General Secretary Shaikat went on stage to join the concert.
At that time Shaikat was pushed by one of Enan`s supporters which led to pushing and shoving and eventually sporadic clashes and vandalism until 2:30am on Friday.
