ABVP activists face charges for trespass and assault, injuring security staff and a student at Azim Premji University in Bengaluru.
Bengaluru police have registered a case against Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) members under relevant sections pertaining to unlawful assembly, trespass, assault, criminal intimidation, and property damage a day after around 25 activists allegedly barged into Azim Premji University, created a ruckus in the campus, and assaulted security personnel and a student.
According to the complaint filed by S. Wilson, Security Manager of the university, a group gathered unlawfully and forcibly entered the college premises. When security staff attempted to stop them, the activists allegedly attacked them, abused them verbally, and issued life threats.
In the incident, six security guards and one student sustained injuries.
The group also allegedly damaged the university’s name board and property before leaving the campus.
Investigations are underway to ascertain how the protest was organised, and whether others were involved in instigating or supporting the incident.
