Students at Sahand Technical University staged a spontaneous sit in this Monday (21st April) in protest at the University authorities’ attacks on a number of female students. As the university authorities and the university president Chanaghlou refused to listen to their demands, the students decided to continue their protest and widen the scope of the protest by expanding the sit in to another building making the following demands:

-The resignation of the members of the university management who had insulted female students
– An apology from the university president
– The abolition of sexual segregation
