Company takes disciplinary action against two employees for unlawful transfer of automobile components

In a recent development, Biman Bangladesh Airlines has terminated two of its employees, Arman Hossain and Samsul Haque, following an incident involving unserviceable aircraft tyres.

According to a statement issued by Biman's Administration and Human Resources Department, the termination was a result of a preliminary investigation by the airline's security division. The employees were found to have handed over unserviceable aircraft tyres to a staff member of US-Bangla Airlines without the necessary approval from the authorities.

The incident took place on 16 August, and security personnel intercepted the act. A general diary (GD) was filed with the Airport Police Station on the same day. However, the Airport Thana OC, Taslima Akhter, stated that the tyres were recovered, so no criminal investigation is being conducted.

The aircraft tyres that were involved were already marked for auction. It is not clear why the employees decided to hand over the tyres to US-Bangla Airlines, but the OC did mention that the GD did not label the incident as 'theft'.

The US-Bangla Airlines official, who spoke anonymously, dismissed the allegation as baseless. They also questioned the purpose of using unserviceable tyres, stating that their aircraft are not the same as Biman Bangladesh Airlines'.

The termination was effective immediately, and the employees received one month's salary in lieu of notice and all other legal entitlements. However, there is no publicly available information identifying the supervisory board members or executives of Biman Bangladesh Airlines who took responsibility for the incident.

It is worth noting that the termination was carried out as per regulations set by the Bangladesh Biman Corporation Employees Regulations. The incident was first reported by our website, but no further details about the investigation or the involved parties were provided.

Despite the termination, the US-Bangla Airlines official did not provide any details about the six tyres mentioned in the incident. Furthermore, no further departmental action regarding the incident was specified in the statement.

In conclusion, Biman Bangladesh Airlines has terminated two employees over an incident involving unserviceable aircraft tyres. The US-Bangla Airlines official has dismissed the allegation as baseless, but the incident remains under investigation.
