Now, I use ldapmodify to edit an entry and instead of plain text, I getting the attribute as base64.
Note that the command-line tool ldapsearch outputs LDIF. LDIF mandates that every attribute value containing NON-ASCII chars must be encoded as base64 (see RFC 2849). The value itself stored in the LDAP is not base64-encoded.
Try to look at the data with a UI LDAP client.
