Action Committee To Get The People Their Money Back

As we [ACTION COMMITTEE TO GET THE PEOPLE THEIR MONEY BACK] have pointed out before, a number of individuals got on TV and other media making promises that they were doing something tangible and that the people would get their money back from the perpetrators who acted by using the name 'First Solution'. The victims have been low-income, mainly expatriate Bangladeshis in the UK. The 'publicity' has been mainly given to divert attention away from the shoulders of the perpetrators, the individuals who took the money and who controlled the taking and misappropriating of the cash.

UK Bangladeshis robbed via '1st. Solution', let down by diplomatic mission in UK

The UK Bangladeshis who have been robbed of their money by a group of perpetrators operating under the front 'First Solution' that had been based near the East London Mosque in Whitechapel Road London E1, had been promised help by the current, care-taker regime in Bangladesh. To date, the victims have not received any help if it is defined by their having received the money back. Why? Is the current care-taker administration in Dhaka, the capital city in Bangladesh, being fully informed by their UK diplomatic mission based in London? Or are there other players and factors involved? Read more >>

Evidence showing the robbed have been doubly robbed by 'leaders' and media

The UK Bangladeshis, some f the most hard up people living in the western hemisphere as migrants doing some of the least dignified or rewarding of jobs and tasks - whose money has been stolen via 'First Solution' [that had the promotional front of 'community link’ and even ‘mosque-proximate-site credibility' because the perpetrating operation was headquartered at the 'London Muslim Centre' next to the 'East London Mosque' on Whitechapel Road London E1 - are NOT anywhere near getting their money back. It is over 6 weeks since they lost money that the vast majority had handed to ‘First Solution’ in trust for transfer to the needy family and realties in Bangladesh. Read more >>
