A three member fact finding committee set up by Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government in Pakistan, to conduct an inquiry into the Bacha Khan University attack has recommended the removal of the the university’s Vice Chancellor and Security Incharge.

After finding the two responsible for serious lapses in the security management of the varsity that resulted in the assault that claimed 21 lives, the committee concluded that not a single security aspect was taken care of, according to the report.

The report maintains that by ignoring security advisories, the university leadership failed its students and employees at all levels. It further said that when the committee inspected the site from where the terrorists scaled the campus wall, the CCTV camera covering that spot was found facing the wrong direction.

The security staff at BKU was ill-prepared and as many as 50 per cent of them were found to be absent on day of the attack, the report said.
