CORRUPTION leads to social injustice, unrest, violence, subjugation that basically gives birth to extremism and the terrorism. Ironically corruption also makes the terrorist attack absolutely possible. In this regard, most important of all is the ‘money-laundering’ the main source of Terrorist Finance, which most importantly provides the basic sustenance, logistics, arms and ammunitions for the terrorist attack.
However what really enables the terrorist leaders or its top brass to successfully disguise or hide so escape detection from the law enforcement agencies while carrying out all the above mentioned terrorist activities (including the financing) is basically their use the *fake or forged ID* (or having no ID at all) in obtaining all those logistics security matters mentioned above (specially phone connections, bank accounts, credit cards, arms and ammunitions) which then used as deadly terror weapons but leave no concrete evidence or the fingerprint (biometric ID) records of people who have purchased it. Therefore after all, it is the fake ID (or no ID at all), which enables the terrorists (specially its leaders) to carry on their sinister terrorist activities but at the same time successfully conceal or hide from the legal identification, detection arrest, most importantly escape from the conviction so to continue to promote their further terrorist attack with impunity.
Above all, what makes the creation of fake ID fundamentally possible is the conventional ID documents containing mainly the NAME, ADDRESS, and the SIGNATURE. It is basically prone to serious fraud or security breach as the corruption perpetrators can successfully forge it and produce all kinds of fake or bogus ID documents when needed to carry out their criminal, activities.
However the government can easily prevent the menace of the fake ID by bringing in the Biometric Identity (BID) especially the fingerprints (along with the name, address and signature) in the ID security matters, as it is absolutely impossible to anyone to forge or fake their biometric identity. In fact the photo and fingerprint ID which are the two main BID components remains compulsory in some very important security matters like passport, voters ID, driving license, criminal records etc. Ironically however it is not yet been introduced where it need the most, to prevent corruption in all financial security matters basically to prevent the fake ID bank accounts. As the terrorist leaders hide behind it while providing finance and other logistics for the terrorist attack and to escape from the legal detection.
Therefore in order to detect and catch the terrorist leaders hiding behind the fake ID (or no ID) while providing finance for the terrorist activities; the governments should first of all bring in a policy of compulsory or Mandatory Biometric Identity (MBID) in all bank accounts with the stipulation that ‘all money transactions above a given amount should be only made through the bank to bank accounts’. Especially any one buying, selling important, social, communication and national SECURITY matters like credit cards, voters ID, dwelling rents, driving license, phone connection, weapons, explosives, drugs or any large sums of money transfer should do its only through the Electronic or E-money (bank to bank) accounts.
Basically it is an unprecedented but extraordinarily simple ‘all in one’ anti-corruption, anti-terrorism solution. Among other things most importantly it saves the Government the enormous financial, labour and other cost burden of requiring people to produce separate BID for “every thing” and “every time” while buying and selling those security matters. But at the same time it successfully prevents the criminals producing the fake ID while buying any such security matters thereby basically root-out corruption along with terrorism.
