I would like to mention that- I am fully aware about the correction of the certificates of my father. During the election of 2008 my father has submitted the photocopies of his educational certificates with his nomination papers. He has also submitted the photocopies of his certificates of Dakhil and Alim examinations. Those certificates ought to be submitted before this Tribunal today, but here I can just see the certificate of Alim examination here in volume-2. My father’s highest educational qualification is this. The photocopies of the certificates of Alim and Dakhil examinations have been submitted in the material exhibit number- 151. On the Alim certificate the words ‘Abu Naim Mohammad’ have been crossed by a line. At the end of the cross the word ‘Syedee’ has been written. There is a signature of confirmation under this. But I don’t know whether the words ‘Hossain’ and ‘Syedee’ have been written by the same hand writings. At the last line the word fifteen has been crossed by a line and the word ‘nineteen’ has been written afterwards. There is a signature of confirmation and there is also a correction seal. Then the word ‘three’ has been crossed and the word ‘one’ has been written afterwards. There are correction seals on every certificate.
Prosecution: The Alim certificate contains the father’s name of Mr. Syedee as Mawlana Md. Yousuf Syedee but the Dakhil certificate does not contain the word ‘Md.’
Witness: Yes.
Prosecution: Alim certificate contains the word ‘Hussain’ whereas the same word has been spelled as ‘Hossain’ in the Dakhil certificate.
Witness: Yes.
Prosecution: Do you have the main certificate and have any idea about the duplicate copies?
Witness: Yes. Before the 2008 election my father has applied for the duplicate copies of these certificates and got those. When he has applied I can’t remember.
Prosecution: Can you say whether your father has got any duplicate certificate before or after 10-11-2008?
Witness: I don’t know. Before the 2008 election my father first came to know that- he has lost his certificates, before this election there was no need to be aware about those certificates as there arose no necessities to apply for any job or anything else with those certificates of my father. There was a necessity to apply for the nomination paper on 2008 election with those certificates.
