World Cup unrest closes university
DHAKA, Bangladesh — A top public university in Bangladesh closed indefinitely after students clashed over whether to cancel classes to watch the World Cup.
Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology asked students to leave dormitories by Sunday to calm the situation, said Habibur Rahman. pro-vice chancellor of the university in the capital.
The decision was made Saturday after at least five students were injured in violence between two groups of students.
Earlier this month, hundreds of angry football fans smashed vehicles in Dhaka after power outages interrupted live TV broadcasts of a World Cup match between Argentina and Nigeria.
Football is the most popular sport in Bangladesh even though the South Asian nation has never qualified for any major international tournament.
