Monday, May 6, 2013
Hooghly; Barasat - The tragic fallout of the multi-crore
Sudipta Sen-led Saradha group chit fund scam in West
Bengal escalated today with the first case of murder
being reported in the state after eight people committed
suicide.
A director of Hello India chit fund company was found
murdered by suspected depositors at Chunchura in Hooghly
district at his residence.
Jayanta Sarkar (48) was allegedly killed with a sharp
weapon last night, the police said today. The fatal
attack was stated to be the first reported case of murder
in connection with the Saradha scam.
According to an FIR lodged at the Chunchura police
station by Sarkar's wife Papiya Sarkar today, three men,
Abhijit Saha and Abdullah Rashid from Coochbehar and
Biplab Biswas from Haringhata, killed her husband and
draped the body in a cloth before they fled.
The number of people who committed suicide after the
Saradha Group went bust rose to eight with the 60-year-
old father of a chit fund company agent ending his life
in North 24-Parganas district distressed over his son's
inability to repay money to investors.
Jagadish Roy, father of Bidhan Roy who was the agent of
Anex Chit Fund, was found hanging at his home at Rishi
Bankim Gar colony at Sodepur this morning, the police
said.
