Albert Naji Bashiri requested from the administration of this school to provide him with a document addressed to the General Recruitment Directorate.
Indeed, we provided him with document No. Sh/113 attached herewith, but this document was not certified because the surname of the aforementioned person
was written in the list of general examination results for the year 1951/952 incorrectly as follows (Albert Naji Batri). Upon
referring to -
1- Our letter No. Sh/1289/52 dated 5/6/1952, according to which the names of students who
participated in the general examinations for the year 51/952 were sent, it was found that his name is Albert Naji Bashiri.
2- Upon auditing the list sent to us under your letter No. 11759 dated 5/19/1952, which included
the names of those participating in the general examinations, it was found that his name is Albert Naji Bashiri.
3- Upon auditing the non-revocation identity card No. 242 dated 4/25/955 attached herewith, it was found that the name of
the aforementioned person is Albert Naji Bashiri.
Therefore, please correct the surname of the aforementioned person and make it Bashiri instead of (Batri).
