Title pretty much explains what I want to do. Some people, including myself, were kicked from a call and we want to find out who did. I searched for a while but couldn't find out how to do it so now I am here. Maybe I missed something.

Hi Kerim,

Thank you for post and the request.

For this issue, in teams meeting, other participants can remove or mute other members if they are willing to. Except for the meeting organizer, you can't remove the organizer.

We are sorry current there is no setting and configuration to set permission for the participant who allowed to remove participants or doing kind of things. We recommend you could post your requests or any related topics at https://microsoftteams.uservoice.com/ and post your concern. We believe the request will be notified by the related teams and hope this new features will coming soon. 

We understand such issue for sure bring inconvenience to you and hope you could understand it, appreciate it.

Kind Regards,

George

    Thank you George, however I would like to know if there is any log displayed to find "who removed" as this is a big trouble as student keep on removing other and create issue with fellow participants, we need to identify the student removing others.

    Also my classmates the mute other or they kick. I believe that this bug would solve it easily with new update. And when somebody kick or mute others could show it in chat , Like"Dester kick Joseph.

    Thank you a lot in advance and all hopes for a good solution on this matter.

    Same issue in my school where students are kicking out teachers and other students. The meeting invite after being set up does allows you to change the role of the participants in Meeting Options.

    According to this article - https://support.microsoft.com/en-gb/office/roles-in-a-teams-meeting-c16fa7d0-1666-4dde-8686-0a0bfe16e019 if I make the teacher a presenter all the students should automatically turn into attendees and they should not be able to kick out other participants or mute others. However, they still are able to.

    This seems to be a bug.
