Following is the statement signed by Debjani Mukherjee:“I, Ms Debjani Mukherjee, daughter of Timir Kumar Mukherjee, residing at 1, Mukherjee Para Lane, Dhankuria, Kolkata-700031. I am from upper middle class family completed my master degree in English and also trained in Aviation Management. In the year 2008, in the month of January, I joined in Saradha Group of Companies in its tour and Traveks sector as jr executive posted in Guwahati with a salary package of Rs 15,000/- but within one month I came back due to some problem and I joined in Kolkata at 64, Shakespeare Sarani, Kolkata-700017. Like all other ladies held from a middle class backgroun, I had also some dreams to be a potent part in the society and believe me I have always tried to give justice to my wishes by enormous dedication determination and discipline. “Like all other dedicated workers in a company I had always been very serious sincere and hardworking towards following my senior employer's order likes the instrucions of a captain in a voyage. I believed my boss Mr Sudipto Sen with utmost good faith from the core of my heart and followed his wish whenever he commanded. Kindly consider the fact that I was just a mere employee and always acted as per the direction of my boss and my work was limited to his directions. “In the month of July 2008, one Company formed under Saradha group namely Saradha Realty India Ltd and I have been promoted as the Director of the Company considering the dedication and hard work of mine. I started concentrating on the company and it also started its journey and my role in that company was to see the administrative part only. I have been assigned to work as an administrator and believe me, fund accumulation was never a part of my job. “I have been given directions to supervise my employees working under my team as junior employees and my boss used to take regular report from me regarding their progress. “Few days later my boss started depending on me considering my ability and he started to take me with him in most of the business tours. Please consider that I had never any relation with Mr Sudipto Sen other than a sincere trustworthy employee and I never tried to override or cross my limits nor did I had any intension to do so. I had never shared any room with Mr Sudipto Sen but to my utmost bad luck people nowadays are gossiping against my chastity. I am a Bengali lady and my family also has a very good reputation, but, unfortunately after all these incidents people are trying to smoke my image which is completely unjustifiable. “All employees of the company do give their full efforts as they receive the salary from there and accordingly I also did the same. But when I found my boss started making business in a different way which is absolutely against my principles I started raising my voice against my boss and he not considering my dedication towards the company sacked me from the post of a director. As I expected the company gradually started felling into trouble and many persons of esteemed class in the society who have always been with cordial relationship with my boss and the company started turning their faces and showing their original colours. “My only fault was that I could not leave my boss like them in the midway of the journey and though I was not given salary from nearly the end of the year 2012, I tried to help him, or at least stand beside him. “Kindly note I have been the director of the 5 Media Companies till date as without proper scrutinee it is impossible to be a director of a Media House and if one has to replace me one should go through the same process which requires lot of procedural complications. “Can you please answer me If I would have did the same thing like acquaintances or associates of Mr Sudipto Sen, who was the source of my bread and butter once then would it have been correct to my conscence and would I have been identified as a loyal employee??? “Trust me that was the only sole reason of my being with Mr Sudipto Sen when he called me at Delhi and though I tried to return twice at Kolkata after meeting him, I could not succeed. This way my journey in this company went alongwith Mr Sudipto Sen and my only sin is, what I understood is that I could not leave the captain of a drowning ship. “However, complaints were lodged against me and Mr Sudipto Sen which is now subjudice and that cannot be discussed in the public front until the end of the investigation. But otherwise people are just making cock and bull stories against me, my family and my role in the company. Kindly consider, I have every justification of what I stated here and I will hundred percent assist investigation so that the people of West Bengal gets justice in whatever means. “I kindly request you all to appreciate my chastity and dignity as a woman and trust me I will raise my support to the fullest extent to the investigation agencies. Kindly consider that I never had Thirty Crore in my account and my account statement which is under police surveillance will definitely reveal that. “I was only the employee of the company and resigned from the directorship one year back and my job was to work for company and get the salary. I had a wish to see myself in the top of corporate arena and I dedicated myself to fulfill that dream as I always learnt there is no shortcut to success but my destiny and ethics of leaving a man in need has put me here where I am. I really appreciate your patience to hear me through my lawyers for such a long time. Thank you all. Regards, Debjani Mukherjee.”
