Dhaka, April 26 -- The Chittagong University of Engineering and Technology (CUET) has been shut indefinitely as agitated students continue to protest, demanding justice for two students killed in a road accident four days ago.

The CUET authorities asked the male students to vacate residential halls within 5:00pm on Thursday and female students within 9am on Friday morning.

The decision was taken at the academic council's 151st emergency meeting on Thursday.

The announcement was made public in a notice signed by CUET registrar Sheikh Mohammad Humayun Kabir.
