The Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) seized smuggled Indian goods and vehicles worth approximately Tk 3.5 crore in a series of operations across Habiganj district over the past 24 hours. Acting on intelligence, a special patrol from the 55th Battalion intercepted a covered van near Jagadishpur Muktiyoddha Chattar in Madhabpur upazila, about five kilometers inside Bangladesh from the border. Hidden compartments inside the van contained Indian sarees and shawls, while a separate sand-laden truck was found concealing cosmetics and cumin.
Additional raids in nearby border outposts recovered Indian liquor and onions. The seized vehicles were also taken into custody. Lieutenant Colonel Md Tanjilur Rahman, commanding officer of the 55 BGB Battalion, stated that the force continues its relentless operations to curb smuggling and narcotics trafficking along the frontier. He emphasized that such drives not only suppress cross-border crimes but also safeguard the nation’s economic and social stability.
Authorities indicated that intensified surveillance and intelligence-led operations will continue to prevent illegal trade across the Bangladesh-India border.
