Rajesh Kumar Bista, a member of Kanti Bhairav Savings and Credit Victim Struggle Committee, said that Chaturvedi had been making frequent visits to the cooperative to collect the deposit amount for nearly two years but in vain.

Bista said, "He had been visiting the cooperative to withdraw his savings for treatment of his broken legs. Chaturvedi was under stress because he could not afford treatment due to lack of money. Chaturvedi had saved Rs 2.5 million in the cooperative, and he had not received the money back.
