Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan Kamal Wednesday expressed deep shock over the harassment of a teacher in Narail. "I am deeply saddened by the incident of humiliation of the teacher in Narail. It is very sad that acting Principal Swapan Kumar Biswas was humiliated by agitated people," the minister said. 


"The extent of negligence of people concerned is being analysed and scrutinised properly," he said while talking to the journalists after holding a meeting on law and order on the occasion of the holy Eid-ul-Azha at the conference room of the Home Ministry at the Secretariat here.


Mentioning that the incident took place instantly, he said the unpredicted occurrence had happened with the influx of a huge number of people, before Deputy Commissioner and Superintendent of Police could take any action.


But, they took action as fast as they could take within that shortest time, he added. 


Actions would be taken if any person related to law enforcement agencies had shown negligence in performing duties properly, he cautioned. 


Responding to another query over the alleged murder of a teacher Utpal Kumar Sarkar at Ashulia, Savar on Saturday last, he said Uzzal, father of a 10th-grader who attacked the teacher with a cricket stamp, has already been arrested.


Referring to the killing of the teacher by his student, he said it is a matter of deep concern that morality of the people has been degraded.


"It is very pathetic that a student has the mentality to kill his teacher, who educates them", he said, adding that the law enforcers nabbed the accused student's father and it is expected that they would arrest the fugitive student soon.


"The criminals will be punished accordingly under the purview of law," he continued.
