The Inter University Students Federation (IUSF) said that they will be staging protests in front of all the universities countrywide on October 19, 20 and 21 in objection to the arrest of the 21 students at the Higher Education ministry last Thursday.
 

The students were arrested during a clash between the Police and the IUSF who had forcibly entered the Higher Education ministry premises in Town Hall after breaking its gates. Some 20 persons, including 12 policemen and eight students, were hospitalized following the clash. (Daily Mirror online)
