VARANASI: The Crime Branch has initiated probe into the violence in the BHU campus and issued notices to 20 members of the proctorial board, together with the ex- chief proctor, asking them to record their statements, officials said on Friday.

A number of students, as well as women, and two journalists were injured in a baton-charge by the police in the Banaras Hindu University (BHU) campus where a protest last week against an alleged eve-teasing incident turned extremely violent.

SP (Crime) Gyanendra Prasad said the inquiry into the violence had begun and they are paid particular attention to the CCTV footage.

He said a cyber team had also been engaged in the case and a dozen mobile numbers that were active near the incident spot, when the alleged eve-teasing took place, had been put on close watch.

Any person having information regarding the incident can also give details to the Crime Branch in its office or on phone, he said adding, their identity would be kept as top secret.

He said information is also being unruffled about anti- social elements residing in and around the campus and those who repeatedly visit there.
