The Border Security Force (BSF) and the Government Railway Police (GRP) have arrested seven Bangladeshi nationals and two Rohingyas for illegally entering Tripura.

A BSF spokesperson said that the border guarding troops apprehended three Bangladesh nationals, including a woman and a girl child, from the Rangichera Border Out Post (BOP) in Tripura’s Khowai district while they were crossing the border fence.

During on-the-spot interrogation, they revealed that two of their associates had already crossed the border fence and moved towards Bagicherra village.

Thereafter, an operation in collaboration with the state police was launched in Bagicherra village in which two more Bangladesh nationals and a tout from the neighbouring country were apprehended.

In another related incident, the GRP personnel arrested two Rohingyas, including a woman, from the Agartala railway station on Friday night. The Rohingyas illegally entered India after fleeing their camps in Bangladesh’s Cox’s Bazar where more than one million displaced Rohingyas from Myanmar have been living since 2017.

Over the last three months, more than 310 Bangladeshi nationals and 34 Rohingyas have been held by the GRP, Border Security Force, and Tripura Police from the Agartala railway station and other places in the state for illegally entering the Indian territory.
