Posing as a client, the police informant made a contact with Asadul Haque, the master roll employee, who asked for Tk 1,700 in exchange of a SSC certificate to be issued in the name of Mohammad Kamal, son of Mohammad Shah Alam, with a pass in the second division.

Receiving the money, Asadul asked the informant to wait at the board office at 11.00am. Later, he returned with a fake certificate only to be caught red-handed by the DB team who were earlier informed by their informant.

Acting on his statement, police raided the house of Abdul Halim at South Chartha and arrested him along with two other clients.

They also seized a number of fake certificates, certificate-making equipment, computer, monitor and a laser printer.

The two clients are Delwar Hossain and Mofzaler Rahman Munshi.

Munshi claimed himself to be a journalist working with a Dhaka-based weekly.
