Former state minister for home Tanjim Ahmad, popularly known as Sohel Taj, has alleged that someone had broken the lock of his suitcase at Dhaka’s Shahjalal International Airport and searched it without his permission. He posted a photo of the opened suitcase on Facebook on Monday and said the incident occurred when he was returning to the US on Sunday. The suitcase, he said, contained some books on his father Tajuddin Ahmad, the first prime minister of Bangladesh. “My name is clearly marked on the nametag,” he said.
Dhaka Customs House Assistant Commissioner Md Saidul Islam passed
the responsibilities on to the airlines. “The law enforcers search someone’s luggage for suspicious things in his or her presence. When the passenger hands the baggage to the airlines, it gives him or her a tag,” he said. “If anything is stolen or any damage is caused after that, the liabilities go to the airlines. The law enforcers have nothing to do with it,” he added.
