Two Bangladeshi nationals were injured by gunfire allegedly from India’s Border Security Force (BSF) near the Satkhira border early Tuesday night. The incident occurred around 2 a.m., injuring Mohiuddin, 42, and Shahin, 28, both residents of Shitalpur village in Kaliganj upazila. Family members said the two men had been working as masons in India and were returning home through a broker when they were shot. They were later dropped off in Nalta area by unidentified persons and taken to hospital.
Local law enforcement and border officials have provided differing accounts. Lieutenant Colonel Rajib Hossain of BGB-17 said no such incident occurred in the area he was patrolling, while Lieutenant Colonel Ashiqur Rahman Chowdhury of BGB-33 confirmed that an investigation is ongoing. Kaliganj police said preliminary information suggests the men had crossed the border illegally and were shot while re-entering Bangladesh. Both victims are in critical condition and have been referred to Satkhira Sadar Hospital.
Authorities have yet to confirm the exact border point where the shooting took place, and investigations are continuing.
