A professor was beaten by a group of Jinnah Sindh Medical University (JSMU) students after he had been accused of sexually harassing female pupils.

A video of the incident is being widely shared on social media, in which the professor, Manzur Ahmad, can be seen being beaten up by students while being hit with slippers.

According to social media news reports, the female students claimed that the professor had been harassing them for some time.

They said that in order to receive better scores, the teacher had previously insisted that they uphold their “relationships and friendships.”
The university has suspended the lecturer after taking note of the harassment claims. According to the rules of the Higher Education Commission of Pakistan, Harassment and Disciplinary Committees that already existed have begun an investigation.

“The inquiry will be completed in a week and the results will be announced. [The] JSMU has a comprehensive anti-harassment policy and cases of harassment are dealt with seriously and strictly so that students feel safe,” JSMU Registrar Dr Azam said in a statement.
