Last week, in a joint operation, the Government Railway Police (GRP), Railway Protection Force (RPF), Border Security Force (BSF), and the intelligence department apprehended three Bangladeshi nationals, including a woman, at Agartala Railway Station, as per Agartala GRP.
According to police, preliminary investigations suggest that all three had entered India illegally and were planning to travel further into southern states via train through Kolkata. Authorities suspect their movement was part of a broader human trafficking or illegal immigration network.
The arrested individuals have been identified as Kamrun Nessa (23), a resident of Dhaka, and two men--Md. Ismail Hossain (22) and Md. Noor Hossain (25), both from Chittagong, Bangladesh. The trio is currently being interrogated at the Agartala GRP Police Station.
A case has been officially registered at the Agartala GRP Police Station. Authorities are treating this as a serious breach of national security and are continuing efforts to uncover the full extent of the illegal network. (ANI)
