A Bangladeshi citizen named Roti Joydhar was killed by gunfire from India’s Border Security Force (BSF) while allegedly attempting to cross into India through the Paliyanpur border in Maheshpur, Jhenaidah. His body was recovered four days later from the Ichamati River, about ten yards inside Bangladeshi territory. Local residents discovered the decomposed body under water hyacinths, prompting Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) and police to retrieve it.
According to Maheshpur police, the body showed signs of gunshot wounds on the neck, ribs, and back. The deceased was identified through documents found on him and later confirmed by his brother, Ronjit Joydhar. The body was sent to Jhenaidah Sadar Hospital for autopsy, and a murder case was filed by the victim’s brother. Roti’s family had moved to India three months earlier, and he was reportedly trying to join them permanently.
The incident has cast a shadow of grief over Roti’s home village in Gopalganj, where preparations are underway for his funeral after the post-mortem examination.
