Duke Syndicate Steals Important Info on E-Passport Holders

BNP’s acting chairperson Tarique Rahman is getting his cousin Saiful Islam Duke to robe important information regarding individuals who have either obtained e-passports or applied for the same.

Bangladesh is the 119th country to be launching e-passport service to update the immigration system in line with the international requirements, reports media.

The prospect of an important project is frustrated by the illegal interference of the e-passport server and the theft of important information from important people and politicians.

As the owner of an IT firm, he has succeeded in getting several projects from the government. His firm, Flora Telecom Limited, has therefore bagged the e-passport project.

Camouflaging as the well-wisher of the government, he has been actually serving the purpose of BNP-Jamaat alliance.

Duke has allegedly made kinship with several people within the government by changing the political colour. He has bagged many government projects although despite his key role in BNP-Jamaat financing.

Saiful Islam Duke is the close aide of the BNP leader Gias Uddin Al Mamun, a friend of Tarique Rahman.

Nephew of BNP chief Khaleda Zia, Duke is co-accused and convicted in many cases including one filed over 21 August grenade attack which aimed at killing the then opposition leader and now Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina.

In the name of running an IT business, he is trying to destabilise the country and put the government in an awkward situation in various ways.

He is playing the role of an undercover agent of BNP-Jamaat clique through his firm involved in various government projects.

Replying to a query, Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan Kamal said the government awarded the project work to German company ‘Veridose GMBAE’. Flora Telecom Limited run by Duke got the work as a subcontractor.

Apart from e-passport, Duke’s firm got work of digitising banking systems in the country posing a serious threat to financial transactions. The syndicate has supplied software to more than 100 branches of eight important public and private banks.
