Personnel of the 172 Battalion, BSF Meghalaya Frontier, successfully apprehended five Bangladeshi nationals — two men, two women and a minor girl — who were attempting to infiltrate into Indian territory near the Indo-Bangladesh border in East Jaintia Hills.
The operation was launched based on specific intelligence input regarding suspicious movement near the jungle area along the international border. During routine patrolling, BSF personnel detected movement and swiftly cordoned off the area, leading to the apprehension of the individuals hiding in the bushes under the cover of darkness and dense vegetation.
The apprehended individuals have been handed over to the local police authorities for further legal proceedings and investigation.
