In just 24 hours, a 38-year-old ends life over harassment, while agents send morphed images of Bandra man to his kin
The loan recovery agents often resort to sending morphed photos of defaulters to kin
The menace of loan recovery agents harassing people has seen a rapid increase with the Mumbai police filing two cases in the past 24 hours. In one case, a 38-year-old from Kurar, Malad East ended his life due to the incessant harassment over recovery of a loan he had never taken. In the other case, a Bandra resident filed a complaint after recovery agents sent his morphed images to his friends and relatives after he defaulted on EMIs. This is the second case of suicide in the past two months over harassment, humiliation through sharing of morphed images and blackmail by loan recovery agents.
