Tahmina (pseudonym) completed her honors in nursing from Osmani Medical University in Sylhet and was working in a private hospital in Sylhet city. Tahmina, 23 years old, was the only earner in the family of farmer parents and 3 younger siblings. She was looking for a better job elsewhere. The girlfriend suggests that if Tahmina wants to go to London, she can arrange the money. Tahmina agrees to her friend's words. Then the girlfriend presents the method very easily where the money will come from. The friend's brother named Rahela (pseudonym) is smart looking but his education is up to SSC. If Tahmina wants, they will get married and the son's family will bear the entire cost of going to the UK. Rahela also said that only if Tahmina gets a master's degree in nursing in London, all difficulties will end. If Tahmina goes there, she will not have to suffer anymore. Tahmina, who came from a poor family, struggled. On the words of her friend, Rangin started having colorful dreams. In the presence of close relatives, Tahmina's family completed the engagement. After the engagement, Tahmina's father-in-law did not go home. The groom said that once the visa is done, he wants to bring the bride home before going to London. Tahmina and her husband came to UK with an 18-month visa after being admitted to a famous university in UK. There was no ceremony and no visit to the father-in-law's house due to lack of time. After coming here, they went to her husband's sister's house. Within a day of Tahmina's arrival, she realized that everyone was hiding something. She was allowed to stay with her sister's daughter. When she asked her husband, what she heard made the sky fall in her head. She was told, you didn't have money to come to London. And my husband had money, but he didn't have the qualifications to become a student. I paid for the job, you gave me the certificate. My family is in the country. You can find a place in a week and leave. Tahmina said, she is now living in Birmingham. She is paying for the food. She has no relatives in this country. Besides, her husband has already left for Portugal. Rabiul got married and brought his wife on a care visa. He lived in Bethnal Green area of ​​East London.

He said that they came to London through a broker after selling a CNG and some expensive land for Tk 30 lakh. Now he does not know what to do. In this way, various incidents are happening in the Bengali community every day. Some people come to contract marriages and run away with their wives, police cases are filed in disputes, people get involved in various immoralities for living and eating. There are many mixed reactions in the community. Many people who work in various aspects of the community express deep concern, we are living in the 4th generation. We have come to this position today through various ups and downs. Due to these murders, fake marriages, police cases, fake job contracts, etc., the reputation of our community is being destroyed day by day. being When asked about these ongoing issues, Barrister Ahmed A Malik, the principal Solicitor of the well-known Westminster Law Chamber of London, said, "The image of the community that has moved to UK is becoming critical day by day. Many of the large number of newcomers are unable to settle here and migrate to Europe. Many struggle to stay here in various ways. Keep going. But very few succeed.” Community activist Zayed Manik Chowdhury told Daily Dazzling Dawn, on the one hand, the honor of the country is being lost due to the tragic incident of fake marriage, on the other hand, the newcomers are criticizing the family ties like marriage through various controversial cases. He said, the generation here is getting a different idea about the home country and community.
