The Detective Branch (DB) of Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) arrested four members of Biman Bangladesh for their alleged involvement in the recent question paper leak in the capital on Saturday.
On the same day, recruitment tests for the post of traffic assistants were held.
Upon receiving information about bribes being taken from applicants by offering them jobs, a team of DB raided and arrested them.
Among the arrested, two were also involved with the question paper leak of examinations related to 10 posts for electricians, mechanics, welders, painters, operators and tailors' appointments.
On primary interrogation, they confessed that they had offered jobs for big sums of money, according to sources.
However, Dhaka Tribune confirmed only one staffer, Kamruzzaman, who was involved in the 10 posts recruitment exam held on 21 October 2022.
Despite criticism, several Biman Bangladesh Airlines officials who were implicated in question paper leaks during the organization's recruitment exam last year are still holding positions on its exam committee.
The Ministry of Civil Aviation and Tourism, Biman and Detective Branch (DB) of Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) formed three separate probe committees over last year's question paper leak.
The probe committees found the involvement of 41 Biman officials in irregularities during the exam.
