The state's policy framed by the elite class is to drastically tax the masses and to generously spend for the lavish activities of the chosen few. The underprivileged majority contributes more than 80% of the state's revenue but they get nothing in return. They are dependent on the public owned neglected institutions or “Ghost Schools” for education of their children, and are at the pity of charlatans to maltreat their grievous ailments. They are compelled to drink germ-infested water for quenching their thirst and allowed to eat few morsels of unhygienic food to breathe at subsistence level. They remain at the mercy of the weather to tolerate scorching summer heat and shivering winter cold due to the deleterious seasonal adventures of the bungling WAPDA. The hard-up neither rest nor are they permitted the pleasure of entertainment.
These conspiracies of social injustice hatched by the cream of the crop compel the rank and file to indulge in short cuts to become rich overnight. This negligent attitude on the part of the government provides vacuum to the countless evil spirited souls to perpetually plunder the wealth of the ignorant teeming millions by launching various Machiavellian schemes. Fraudulent persons, by putting in the picture syrupy dreams and cheesy paradigms, ensnare innocent clients by assuring them that they can also become wealthy at once. There are several devilish schemes and deceitful organizations working in Pakistan to loot the innocent populace and to deprive them of even small amount of money they earn after working like a beaver throughout their life.
A few years back a schoolteacher; belonging to the village Qaolo Ki of Wazirabad “Syed Sibtul Hassan” alias “Double Shah” initiated a baffling scheme in 2005 after returning from Dubai . He started doubling-up money with tenacity first within 10 days, afterward within 30days,followed by 70 days and the tenable duration culminated up to 90 days from April 1, 2007, after which he was taken into custody on April 13 by the police and put behind bars. The police are on the trail of fugitive criminals. He doubled the money of some mysterious hidden crocodiles within 40 days or less than this even during the last soaring days of his nasty commerce. These well-connected dinosaurs provided sanctuary to his illegitimate parallel banking.
His deleterious dealings with the help of noxious agents, who trawled innocent civilians, mushroomed all over the country especially in Wazirabad and Sambrial cities of Gujranwala Division. Recently he has extended an atrocious limb in Lahore . The innocent indigenous people tempted their near and dear ones living in far-flung areas of the country to avail this golden opportunity. The people put up for sale their virgin agrarian fields, charming cattle, expensive plots, precious jewelry, costly articles of dowry, heavy agricultural machinery, pricey vehicles and some unfortunate even sold their homes to commit the unforgivable sin of becoming rich overnight.
A few weeks before his arrest various murmurs threw the clients into confusion that their amount deposited might sink if the scheme came to terminal decline or Double Shah switched off his business and took off from the country. But their greed dominated rumors and apprehensions, which were substantiated with his arrest. His capture gave a big jolt to the victims and a thrill of alarm ran through them. The preys would never forget this maxim “Asman se gira khajoor mein atka”. Many tottering and heart rending real sagas that reduced millions of suffers to tears came to the surface resulting from the throbbing repercussions of Mr. Shah's detention.
Strangely not a solitary case of fraudulence can be traced to date, which can prove that any client did not get back his money after doubling. But it is a palpable reality that there is not a single fair business throughout the world, even in the developed countries, which can twice the money within such little point in time. How is it possible in a developing country like Pakistan that is making progress by fits and stars at a snail's pace? There is not a shadow of doubt that the whole doubling scheme was based on mala fide intention because puffed-up Shah returned tiny amount of only 1% after doubling and the bulky 99% currency remained in his grubby hands because majority of the people reinvested after doubling. Now, some sufferers fear that Double Shah is hand in glove with bigwigs and the billions of rupees plundered would be parceled out among the few big shots. The victims are panicked that he would be at large with the help of his vicious connections to flee from Pakistan after the people shut their trap when their temperature lowered, and when they are fed up with the roasting protests in scorching summer heat.
