Delhi Police file case against JNUSU leader Aishe Ghosh, 19 others for vandalising server room
New Delhi/IBNS: The Delhi Police on Tuesday filed a First Information Report (FIR) against the Jawaharlal Nehru University Students' Union (JNUSU) leader Aishe Ghosh and 19 others for allegedly vandalising the university server room and attacking security guards on Jan 4 while protesting against the fee-hike, media reports said.
The alleged incident took place a day before a huge number of masked men carrying rods, sledgehammers barged into the campus, girls' hostel of the university, vandalised the institution, attacked students including Aishe and a professor.
The university officials have claimed the technical staff had accessed the Communication and Information premises on Saturday morning after the alleged vandalism.
After the staff got the servers back online, the attackers had allegedly re-entered the room at around 1 pm and damaged them again.
Denying the claim, the JNU students said the university administration used the "masked" security guards to carry out the vandalism.
While reacting to Sunday's violence on students, the JNU administration in a statement said repeated attempts have been made by outsiders to disrupt the registration process of winter semester.
