Dhaka University has cancelled the residential seats of two students following allegations of homosexuality against them, according to the administration of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman Hall.Hall Provost Prof Md Akhtaruzzaman told the media on Wednesday that the decision was taken based on recommendations from an investigation committee.The university administration is also reviewing whether further action should be taken against the two students. However, university authorities had previously said that its regulations do not contain specific provisions regarding such allegations.The development comes amid a series of similar allegations at residential halls of Dhaka University in recent months.In one incident, an allegation was raised that a student had brought an outsider to the hall for a same-sex encounter. In another case, a hall student union leader and another student were accused of engaging in a same-sex relationship.The hall administration later temporarily cancelled the residential seat of the student union leader. He, however, denied the allegation. The latest decision has again brought questions over how university authorities should address allegations involving students when there are no specific provisions in the university's regulations.
