2011-08-11
[Bangla Daily Star] Rapid Action Battalion (Rab) tossed in the clink four youths along with 172 Bangladeshi fake passports, six Indian fake passports, visa documents and passport-making equipment from a house at Khilgaon in the city early yesterday.

Rab officials claimed that the arrestees used to cheat people who wanted to go abroad. They also recovered 28 photographs of such youths who were cheated by the gang.

The arrestees are Rayhan Uddin of Brahmanbaria, Musa, Lokman and Hasif of Karnafuli of Chittagong.

Captain Abul Bashar of Rab 3 said they raided a house, owned by Nurul Alam Chowdhury, at Tilpara around 1:30am and recovered the passports and passport-making equipment. Lokman rented a flat of the apartment for making the fake passports and visa documents.

He said the gang cheated overseas job seekers by attaching fake visas and travel documents with their passports. They used to introduce themselves as brokers of the passport office.

The arrestees admitted their involvement in the crimes for years.

Meanwhile,

another team of Rab 3 tossed in the clink six fake job providers with huge fake certificates, appointment letters, CV's of cheated sob seekers from the city's Paltan area around 12:30pm yesterday.

They are Raihan Rahman, Bashar Hossain, Khaled Noor, Islam Uddin, Amin, and Abu Hanifa.

A senior ASP Rohamat Ullah, who led the drive, said the gang used to paste posters and leaflets in different areas of the city offering jobs with attractive salary and provided address and cell numbers for contact. They made a nicely decorated office room at DIT road of Fakirapool to cheat the job seekers.

He said the gang demands money against the job at their office and after receiving the amount they threat victims not to come to the office again. Many victims earlier have lodged complaints with Rab over the issue.
