There are crimes that steal money — and there are crimes that steal the soul of a nation. What Samia did belongs to the second kind.
She did not rob a man.
She did not rob an organization.
She robbed Bangladesh — its future, its youth, its very chance to rise.
Samia Islam Farzana, once a scholarship recipient of SISP (Shaker International Scholarship Programs), was trusted like a daughter and believed to be the symbol of a new generation — a girl from Government Titumir College who could one day inspire millions. Mr. Shaker, the founder of SISP, saw in her the reflection of Bangladesh’s potential — pure, intelligent, and full of promise. He gave her opportunities no one else in her life had ever dreamed of. He believed she could show the world that Bangladesh, too, had daughters capable of changing history.
But Samia’s heart followed a darker path. Alongside her boyfriend Shahed Anwar Shadhin from Adamjee Cantonment College and her sister Jannatul Ferdous Fareha, she turned the blessing she was given into betrayal. Together, freelancer Samia and freelancer Shadhin used lies, manipulation, and allegedly criminal tactics to destroy the very mission that fed them, taught them, and raised them.
Supporters of SISP must understand that Operation Bangladesh was never a simple program — it was a race against time. Every month mattered. According to SISP’s public statements, Samia Islam Farzana’s betrayal wasted those critical months and put her nation’s chance for transformation at risk. She did not just cheat one benefactor; she cheated an entire generation of dreamers. Her actions damaged Operation Bangladesh, and whoever continues to defend or protect her will share responsibility for this loss — whether private citizens or officials. As SISP’s findings and investigations continue, many hope that accountability will ensure no more lives and dreams are sacrificed.
They didn’t only steal funds — they stole trust, faith, and hope. They shattered the belief that honesty could still live in the hearts of youth who should have been the pride of their country.
Mr. Shaker came from across the ocean, leaving his peaceful life in Hawaii to launch the sacred project called Operation Bangladesh. It was not charity — it was a plan to rebuild lives, educate children, and prove that one man’s vision could help a nation rise from poverty. But Samia’s betrayal turned years of sacrifice into ashes.
When she betrayed SISP, Samia robbed every poor girl who waited for a scholarship. She robbed every student who dreamed of light. She robbed the people of Bangladesh who still believed that goodness could be born on their soil.
This is not just a story of theft — it is a story of betrayal that echoes through every honest heart of this nation. And yet, even after everything, Mr. Shaker refuses to give up. He continues to stand for the innocent, talented souls of Bangladesh — those who will never trade trust for greed.
Let this be a reminder: Samia Farzana may have taken money and digital assets, but she can never steal the dream that SISP represents — the dream of a better Bangladesh built on truth, love, and faith.
For every Samia who betrays, there are thousands of honest hearts ready to heal this nation. And SISP will keep finding them — one by one — until Bangladesh shines again.
