DHAKA, Sept 2, 2025 (BSS) - The government has moved to issue an Interpol red notice against the owners of three garment factories -- TNZ Group, Dard Group and Roar Fashion Ltd -- following allegations of their prolonged stay abroad and failure to ensure due payments to workers.

The individuals accused are Managing Director of TNZ Group Shahadat Hossain Shamim, Chairman of Dard Group Ittemad Ud Doula, Managing Director of Dard Group Nabil Ud Doula and Managing Director of Roar Fashion Ltd Mamunul Islam.

The move is based on cases filed with the Labour Court in Gazipur, and the First and Third Labour Courts in Dhaka, under the Ministry of Labour and Employment.

Adviser to the Ministries of Labour and Employment and Shipping Brigadier General (Retd) Dr M Sakhawat Hossain said, "We are committed to protecting the legitimate rights of workers, and we will take a strict stance against anyone who acts unjustly towards them."

Mentioning that legal proceedings are ongoing against the accused over labour rights violations and related legal allegations, he said that the initiative aims to bring them back to the country and ensure that pending wages and dues are paid to the workers.

Following a request from the Ministry of Labour and Employment to issue red notices against the factory owners and managing directors, a letter signed by the Additional Inspector General (NCB) at the Police Headquarters has been sent to Interpol requesting issuance of the red notices.

Chief Adviser's Special Envoy for International Affairs Lutfey Siddiqi said, "Negligent or uncooperative behaviour by factory owners regarding the rightful claims of workers will not be tolerated. There must be consequences for such actions."

He lauded the Labour and Employment Adviser for his firm steps in this regard.
