BSF vandalises houses in Bangladesh village, lifts four cows in Lalmonirhat
Panic gripped the bordering villages since Monday night when a group of about 25 Indian BSF men from two camps in Koochbehar illegally entered into Bangladesh, vandalized at least three houses at Kisamot Nijjoma a village in Patgram upazila in Lalmonirhat and fled with four cows.
Villagers said that the BSF troops from Ratanpur and Shalbari camps of 132 BSF Battalion at Meghliganj police station in Koochbehar district lifted four cows of Bangladesh villagers.
A three-hour company commander level flag meeting between Border Guard Bangladesh and the Indian BSF ended at the no-mans land Tuesday afternoon without any results.
Villagers said that they want the cows lifted by BSF back.
Freedom fighter Kapor Uddin, 68, of Kisamot Nijjoma said that about 25 BSF men entered our village Monday night, vandalised three houses and fled with four cows from the village.
He said that the BSF men threatened the villagers they would be picked up unless they kept mum over what they did.
So we preferred to keep mum, until the BGB troops came to the village after the BSF men had left, he said.
The villagers are in panic, as flag meeting ended without any result, he said.
He said that the villagers were apprehensive that BSF could attack the village again anytime.
Moyna Begum, 36, wife of Atikar Rahman of the village said that the villagers were in panic after inconclusive flag meeting.
The BGB team leader, Burimari BGB company camp commander Helal Uddin Ahmed said that at the flag meeting the BSF team refused to admit what they did.
Despite protests from the BGB against the intrusion, he said, BSF flatly denied that they entered the Bangladeshi village, he said.
At the flag meeting held at no-mans land near the main pillar No 854 at Sree Rampur border 12- member BSF team was led by company commander of Ratanpur BSF camp SK Singh.
Helal led an eight-member BGB team.
