Biman test question leak: Another official transferred

A second official whose name came up in the investigation into Biman Bangladesh's recruitment exam question paper leak was transferred today.

The transferred official is Major Taiz Ibne Anowar, the general manager of the ground service equipment department and deputy general manager of the security department who was a member of the committee formed to prepare the question paper.

Taiz was removed from his post after his name surfaced in connection with the question paper leak of a test for 10 posts of electricians, mechanics, welders, painters, operators and tailors.

The transfer order was issued on January 1, 2023, signed by the deputy secretary of Ministry of Public Administration, Abdullah Arif Mohammad.

Taiz's transfer from Biman comes just a month after the removal of Bangladesh Biman's managing director and CEO Zahid Hossain.

In late November, the flag carrier submitted a report to the ministry pointing fingers at Taiz on several issues including his involvement in the recruitment test question paper leak.
