In a significant operation, a Bangladeshi national named Muqtar Hussain (32), a resident of Dinajpur in Bangladesh, has been apprehended by the 89 Battalion of the Border Security Force (BSF) in Assam’s Dhubri district. The incident occurred on Saturday night when BSF personnel were conducting routine border patrolling near the Bishkhowas Border Out Post in the Golokganj sector.
According to sources, Hussain was detained during these patrols and is currently being interrogated by the BSF intelligence branch. The source further stated that after the interrogation is complete, he will be handed over to the Golokganj Police Station for further legal procedures.
