They are Saiful Islam and Nazmul Huda. They are both students at Dhaka University. They are the leaders of the Bangladesh General Council for Student Rights, a platform of the movement formed to demand the lifting of quotas in government service.

Rajib Al Masood, deputy commissioner of the Lalbagh division of the detective police, told bdnews24.com that they were arrested in raids at various locations in Dhaka city on Sunday night.

“They have been shown arrested in a case brought by a Dhaka University student at the Kotwali Police Station.”

The student filed a case under the Digital Security Law on September 21 alleging abuse of women and children, kidnapping, rape, and murder of characters through social media.

The fourth defendant in this case is Saiful and the fifth defendant is Nazmul. Daksh Nurul’s former vice president Haque Nur is also charged in the case.

The DU student also filed a case against them at the Lalbagh Police Station on September 20.

The student fell ill while making a sculpture of Raju fasting demanding the arrest of the accused.

Student council leaders were spotted on various anti-rape shows on Shahbag and the National Press Club.

They were criticized by law enforcement for failing to arrest them even after being convicted in a rape case.

However, police officers could not say how many days the two would be sent to court on remand.
