Faridabad A notable case involving Al Falah University has taken a new turn when it was revealed that the family of Dr. Nisar—specifically his wife and daughter—have been placed under house arrest. This action has become a topic of discussion following steps taken by administrative and security agencies, and it has raised concerns not only in academic circles but also among human rights organizations.
According to available information, Dr. Nisar was accused by university management and some government agencies of serious irregularities and involvement in controversial activities. An investigation into the matter was already underway, but the situation suddenly became tense in the last 48 hours. As soon as authorities took Dr. Nisar into custody, his wife and daughter were restricted to their residence—meaning they were not permitted to leave the house without authorization.
The family states that this step was neither necessary nor in accordance with legal procedure. Dr. Nisar’s wife alleged that they were not given any official notice nor informed why they were placed under house arrest. The daughter says it feels like mental harassment and an attempt to deliberately pressure the family.
On the other hand, security agencies claim the case is sensitive and this step was taken to protect the investigation from being influenced. They state that monitoring the external contact activities of any family member is necessary until the investigation is complete. However, they also clarified that this is not “routine procedure” but rather a “situational precaution.”
This incident has created outrage within the university campus and among teachers’ organizations. Many professors have stated that in any dispute involving an educational institution, families should not face such action unless there are direct allegations against them. Several student organizations have also registered protests, calling it “excessive and unconstitutional action.”
Human rights activists have demanded that the administration immediately clarify the situation and allow the family to resume normal life. They state that such actions go against the justice system and the spirit of civil liberties.
The case is currently under investigation, but the manner in which Dr. Nisar and his family have been treated has sparked widespread discussion among education circles, legal experts, and social organizations. The situation may become clearer in the coming days based on the administration’s next actions and possible judicial intervention.
