Tapas Das, Officer-In-Charge of the GRP at Agartala Railway Station in Tripura, informed that the detentions on Monday (July 01) were based on a tip-off received late Sunday (June 30) night about illegal Bangladeshi nationals at the railway station planning to travel to various destinations.
“We have detained 11 Bangladeshi nationals along with their children. Preliminary interrogation reveals they entered Tripura illegally and without valid documents, intending to travel by train. A case has been filed, and they will be produced before the court,” said Das.
