One of the four students of the Jaffna University who was arrested for disturbing the peace through a demonstration staged on November 28 was released on bail today (December 4).

The four students were presented to the Vavuniya Magistrate Court today while one of the suspects was released on bail, Police Spokesman SSP Prishantha Jayakoddy stated.

The other three students will be kept in remand while the Terrorist Investigation Division has been given permission to question them.

On 27 November, the police entered the University of Jaffna, due to some lamps being lit. The police suspected the students of having a Remembrance Day while a protest was organized later on against the police intervention where university students were attacked.
