The Indian Border Security Force (BSF) pushed 17 Bangladeshi nationals, including women and children, into Bangladesh through the Charaldanga border in Gomastapur upazila of Chapainawabganj on Tuesday night. Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) detained them early Wednesday near Shibnagar Bazar, about three kilometers from the border. Lieutenant Colonel Mohammad Ariful Islam Masum, commanding officer of BGB’s 16th Battalion, confirmed the incident.
According to BGB, the group—comprising eight men, five women, and four children—are residents of Khulna and Jashore. They had previously entered India illegally and were arrested by Indian police. The detainees served three years in Agra jail before being released upon completion of their sentences. After their release, Indian police handed them over to BSF, which then pushed them back into Bangladesh.
Following their detention, BGB handed the 17 individuals over to Gomastapur police for further legal procedures.
