Ishrat Ibn Ismail, SUST proctor, was called several times to inquire about the matter, but could not be reached on the phone.
Abu Hena Pahil, assistant proctor of the university, said that Bulbul was rescued and brought to the medical centre of the university first. But as his bleeding would not stop, he was taken to Osmani Hospital, where doctors declared him dead.
"Students go for a walk on that hill during the afternoon," Pahil said, adding that the police are investigating Bulbul's death.
