The Indian Border Security Force (BSF) handed over 24 detained Bangladeshis to the Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) on Friday night, following a thwarted plan of push-in across the border. The handover took place during a flag meeting between the BGB and BSF at the Balatari border in Phulbari upazila of Kurigram. After the handover, BGB ensured the safe return of the individuals to their families. According to sources, BGB had received intelligence suggesting a potential push-in attempt by BSF. In response, BGB warned BSF that any repatriation must follow proper identification procedures and only confirmed Bangladeshi citizens would be accepted. Nationals of other countries would not be allowed entry under any circumstances. This transfer followed that agreement.
