News Topical, Digital Desk : Once again, Bangladeshi smugglers attacked the vigilant jawans of BSF South Bengal Frontier in North 24 Parganas district of West Bengal and tried to forcibly smuggle. The vigilant and brave jawans posted at border outpost Tarali-1 of 143rd battalion of BSF bravely faced this attack. Even in difficult conditions, the jawans showed utmost restraint and fired in self-defense and completely foiled this smuggling attempt. During the operation, two smugglers have been arrested. 10 kg ganja, 100 bottles of Phensedyl and a sharp weapon have been recovered from the spot. One BSF jawan was injured in this operation, who has suffered an injury in his left hand.
How did the smugglers attack?
According to the information received, this incident happened at around 01:50 in the night, when the jawan on duty at the second shift forward check post saw 3 to 4 suspicious persons moving towards the international border with a backload. The jawan on duty immediately showed alertness and alerted his partner and moved rapidly towards the smugglers. The jawan challenged them and asked them to stop, but they did not stop and became aggressive by pelting stones, abusing and using torch light. Seeing the seriousness of the situation, the jawan fired a warning shot in the air from a PAG. Despite this, the smugglers became more aggressive and came very close to the jawan and attacked him with a sharp weapon.
Two suspected smugglers arrested
A BSF jawan was injured in the attack by smugglers. Meanwhile, other jawans also reached the spot. Taking advantage of the darkness and nearby houses, the smugglers tried to escape, but the vigilant jawans chased and caught two suspected smugglers. A large quantity of drugs and smuggled goods were recovered from them. After this, a thorough search of the area was conducted, in which 100 bottles of Phensedyl and a sharp weapon were recovered. The arrested smugglers have been brought to Border Outpost Tarali-1 for further interrogation.
What did BSF say on the incident?
The spokesperson of BSF South Bengal Frontier said that such incidents are not uncommon on our path of duty. Our soldiers are discharging their duties with extraordinary courage, commitment and vigilance. Repeated flag meetings have been held with BGB to alert them about the forced infiltration and continuous attacks by Bangladeshi criminals, despite this no concrete action has been taken by them till now. This inaction of BGB has further emboldened the smugglers and criminals. Despite this, BSF soldiers are fully capable of protecting the borders and ensuring the security of the nation in every situation.
