Two more Bangladeshis shot dead by BSF

Our Correspondent . Thakurgaon

Indian border security force killed two more Bangladeshi cow traders at Bujruk frontier in Haripur upzilla of Thakurgaon district early on Tuesday morning.
The victims were identified as Nurul Islam, 27, son of Abdur Rahman of
Kadasukha village of Haripur upzilla and Muktar Dai, 18, son of Ainul Dai of Dhirganj village of Haripur upzilla.
Major Muntasir Mamun Siddique, operation officer of BGB–2 unit of Dinajpur, said soldiers of 221 Borrah camp of BSF opened fire at Pillar Nos. 361 and 362 at Bujruk frontier when Nurul and Mukter tried to smuggle in cow from India to Bangladesh.
Nurul died on the spot while Mukter died at Raiganj hospital of North Dinajpur in India after BSF had taken him to there in a critical condition.
Local people recovered the body of Nurul from the border. Lieutenant Colonel Syed Fazle Kadir Ahmed said a flag meting was held at 1.30pm between BGB and BSF in this regard.           
Killing of unarmed Bangladeshis by BSF is rampant along the border with India despite repeated assurance by New Delhi to stop such shootouts.
