BAGERHAT, Dec 19: Cheated clients of a money-lending organization in the district formed a human chain on Wednesday at 11am, demanding return of their deposits.

They arranged the human chain at LGED intersection, which was presided over by Md Al-Amin, convenor of clients' Sangram Committee. Its Member Secretary Mawlana Belayet Hossain conducted the programme. 
Victim clients said, a money-lending company New Basundhara took Tk 550 crore deposits from 28,000 clients, showing 50 per cent profits. In alluring people, it referred  to Islami Shariah rules. In this case, they used some Alems and elites to attract people.      

After the disclosure of cheating, the company closes all its offices in 2019.  Clients started to communicate with officials and employees of the lending company. But they killed time in various ways.

Speakers said, "We have come to inform the administration about victim clients and demand returning our money." 
   
"We demand appointing a receiver by the government, and thereby return our due money," they added.

Member of the victim  clients committee-Khulna Branch Mawlana Mafizul Islam said, at the very nose of the administration, former officer Abdul Mannan Bhuiyan of Bagerhat District administration managed money-greedy politicians of the then ruling party, and he turned these 28,000 people destitute.

"For not getting back money, many of us committed suicide. We demand  assistance from the present administration,"   he said again.

Among others, Md Abu Sayed, Master Ruhul Amin, G.M. Mahiuddin, Mizanur Rahman Gazi, Ali Akbar, Abul Kashem, Md Jahangir, and Mawlana Abdulal Al Manun spoke at the human chain.
