Bhubaneswar: Barely days after the untimely death of TV journalist Arindam Das in a tragic boat mishap at Mundali in Cuttack during an elephant rescue operation, his sister Jharana Das has appealed people not to spread rumours about the family on social media.
Reacting to the messages that the family is seeking financial help from public, she termed it all as fake and requested people’s cooperation in their tough times.
Here is the letter posted by Arindam’s younger sister Jharana on social media:
“In this tough time, this is what I could think of doing to stop the rumours circulating about my brother Arindam Das. We are not in a condition to take these. Try to think what if it happens with your own family. Please stop making fun of anyone’s tragedy,” Jharana wrote on her Twitter handle.
“As a family, we can take care of his liabilities. By God’s grace we still have many well-wishers with us during this tough time. We have a joint family and all our brothers and sisters are well settled,” Jharana said adding that their late father was a retired banker who was well known for his honesty and humanity.
“My brother was also pure at heart and he was dedicated to his work and was never behind money. By God’s grace, we will be able to manage this tough situation so that his wife and son can get a respectful life,” she further wrote.
“Heartfelt gratitude to everyone who all are praying for strength, support and love for our family to grieve. People who are seeking attention from my brother’s untimely demise, I request them to spare us and show some humanity,” she added.
