BOTH the screen shots were taken from TV on June 21 in Mohammadpur area of Dhaka. It is a movie channel run by the local cable operator. While telecasting a movie, the cable operator runs some advertisements. One of the two advertisements is about two fake spiritual leaders who claim that they can solve any problem of your professional and personal life. For example, if you want to go abroad, get a good job, win the heart of your boy/girlfriend and so on, they can solve all your problems within 48 hours which is impossible by any stretch of imagination. It is surprising how these criminals can continue to deceive innocent people with fake assurances. Nobody is there to stop it and bring those culprits under the ambit of law. I hope, in the holy month of Ramadan, the concerned authorities will take necessary steps to chain these culprits so that innocent people are no longer misguided by fictitious promises of these fake spiritual leaders.
