Rape is very common incident under the veil of drug peddling on the Jahnagirnagar University campus, said Rapid Action Battalion (RAB) on Thursday.
Not only Mamun, but many others have committed misdemeanors like sexual assault and rape incidents in the university area. Many rape survivors do not speak out due to fear and disgrace, said Commander Khandaker Al Moin, Legal and Media Wing Director of RAB, during a press briefing at the RAB media centre in Karwan Bazar in the capital.
RAB revealed the information a day after arresting Mamun from Dhaka and accomplice Murad Hossain from Naogaon respectively.
However, Mamunur Rashid Mamun, a prime accused in the recent rape incident at JU, is a drug trader and used the university campus and its surrounding areas as the hotspot for his illegal business, RAB official said.
The official revealed that Mamun has been selling drugs from Coxs Bazars Teknaf area on the campus, hiding them in his shoes and mobile phone power banks to dodge the eyes of law enforcers.
