IUSF says student molested during uni leadership training program
The Inter University Students’ Federation (IUSF) alleged that yet another student participated for this year’s University Leadership Training Program (ULTP) has become handicapped as a result of an accident during a training session.
Issuing a statement, Convener of the IUSF Najith Indika said that V.K.D.R. Vijitha Latha has sustained a spinal code injury on 8 November as she fell out of a 7 ft wall at the Kalattawa Army Camp and is currently being treated at the Anuradhapura Teaching Hospital.
IUSF Convener Indika further stated that, in another incident, a prospective university student had been sexually molested by an army soldier at the Gannoruwa Army Camp, and the authorities had cover-up the incident.
The IUSF charged that the ULTP is a politically motivated propaganda, in which the authorities tend to proceed despite the objection of lecturers, parents and undergraduates.
