Cancel 'tampered' LLB results: CUTA
Implement Syndicate decisions


The Chittagong University Teachers' Association (CUTA) on Wednesday demanded immediate cancellation of tampered results of examinees who appeared in the LLB examinations from 1983 to 1994.

The Teachers' Association also demanded immediate implementation of a decision taken by the university Syndicate in its 353rd meeting.

CUTA President Dr Nurul Anwar told this correspondent that they had requested the CU authorities to preserve the findings of a probe body formed in 1996 and related documents.

He told that the Syndicate decision on tempering of results could not be implemented 'possibly due to a pressure from vested quarters'.

The university authorities took a move to collect addresses of 2,400 examinees involved in tempering mark sheets and results of LLB examinations from 1983 to 1994. The move was taken after revelation of a result scandal of High Court Additional Judge Faisal Mahmud Faizee recently.

Faizee who appeared in LLB examination from Chittagong Law College in 1989 had been allegedly involved in tempering his mark sheet on the subject of Muslim law, according to probe finding.

The probe body formed in 1996 also found involvement of 110 other lawyers in tampering their results in collusion with some university officials of the university's confidential section, according to 'varsity sources.
