At least 3 Bangladeshi nationals were detained in Katigorah area of Cachar district, Assam.
The Bangladeshi’s were apprehended by the village defence organization at Sunday night from the Kinnakhal market of Cachar district at the India-Bangladesh border.
According to reports, few members of the village defence organization suspected the trio when they were moving around the market.
On suspicion, the defence organization detained the three persons.
Upon interrogation, the trio accepted that they were Bangladeshi nationals and have illegally entered India to smuggle buffaloes into Bangladesh from Cachar.
After the confession of the three Bangladeshi’s, the village defence organization informed the Cachar Police about the incident and handed the trio to them.
