I am sorry it happened to you. You need a professional legal counsel. You can contact Cohen Immigration Law or google immigration lawyers in your city (if you are in Canada).
Agree that you need to be consulting with an immigration lawyer, I would also consider filing a police report so you have some evidence of the assault to provide to IRCC but that is a personal choice and speaking to your international student coordinator at your school of you are still enrolled. Your best option is likely to start another program from scratch because if you have multiple years of part-time studies that will be difficult to overcome. Have you also been on academic probation? Taken semesters off? Also you need to start following the immigration rules correctly right now.
I am sorry to hear that, You need to Inform Police and your college Immediately. Also speak with the Media/Legal office for further proceedings.
