Dear sir,

This is in response to many of your news reports of 26th November 2008 Mumbai terror attack particularly the recent on 6th December 2008 titled; “Two arrested in Mumbai terror probe, bought SIM used by ultras” http://www.outlookindia.com/pti_news.asp?id=643072 .

Here let me present my proposal to prevent such terror attacks.

The government should first of all bring in a policy or legislation that; any one buying or selling important security matters or things, like phone connection including cell phone, SIM card also weapons, explosives, drugs credit cards, or any big transfer of money or asset should do it only directly through their bank to the others bank account. And most importantly all the bank account should have Biometric Identity (BID) mainly the “fingerprints” to identify it. I call it Mandatory Biometric Identity (MBID) policy in all bank accounts. In this way it will make it impossible for any criminals including the terrorist to buy the above mentioned security matters with fake ID documents. This can greatly help to track down and catch the terror culprits by the payment they make for the things used in the terror attacks.

For example, in the world today when any phone call received, the technology undoubtedly enables the law enforcement to find out the callers phone number, the companies name thereby the name address and signature and other ID documents given by the person who purchased it as its owner. This greatly helps to track down and catch the culprits who committed crime using that phone.

Similarly by employing the advanced BID technology in the banking system the way I mentioned above will undoubtedly enable the law enforcement to pick up the lead from the suspects phone number directly to the bank account number (having the BID) from which the phone had been purchased. It is impossible to fake or forge the BID therefore most importantly it will enable the law enforcement to unmistakably find out all the bank accounts, or credit card in the country registered under this BID. So the law enforcement easily go through every money transaction conducted through all those bank accounts and credit cards having that particular BID thereby to find out any of its money transactions linked to this crime. Also every other bank accounts that conducted money transaction with it. In this way the law enforcement can investigate and find out the details of all the money transactions of the entire criminal network recorded in their BID bank account.

The great advantage of having the MBID in the banking system for the law enforcement that they can conduct most of their crime investigation effortlessly without even the suspects ever knowing whether they are or have been under the investigation! Moreover, the BID bank account details enable the investigator to decide whether the crime suspect are guilty or not guilty and to what extent. The payments for the things used in the crime directly made from a bank account contain the person BID forms the undeniable evidence that qulifies or satisfies the international standards. So to finally arrest and successfully convict the culprit. So to root out the corruption that in itself give rise to major crimes including terrorism.
