The International Islamic University, Islamabad, on Saturday confirmed a Pakistan Today report later aired by a private TV channel regarding immoral activities at the educational institution. The University administration however said the incident happened during the tenure of the previous administration.
“The present administration of the university has struck off two officers allegedly found involved in immoral activities instantly. Their cases have been referred to the disciplinary committee. As soon as the committee reach a conclusion, their recommendations will be acted upon,” a statement issued by the IIU said. It further said that the university has drawn a code of conduct for its employees to follow. “The previous administration used to hush up such issues but the present administration has adopted a zero tolerance policy in this regard. In the media reports, an attempt was made to create an impression that the university administration is lenient with regards to such immoral activities, which is actually against the policy of the university. Parents of university students should be satisfied that the administration is very vigilant for protection of dignity of its students.”
