BSF accused of beating Bangladeshi farmer to death along Chapainawabganj border

Staff Reporter:

A Bangladeshi farmer was allegedly beaten to death by India’s Border Security Force (BSF) while irrigating farmland near Raghunathpur border in Shibganj upazila of Chapainawabganj on Friday.

The deceased, Barikul Islam, 36, was a resident of Namojgnathpur in Durlavpur union of the upazila, locals said.

Saidur Rahman, a member of Durlavpur Union Parishad, said Barikul and several other farmers went to irrigate their fields near the border in the morning when the BSF members from Bajitpur camp in Murshidabad area chased them.

Barikul was reportedly detained by the BSF men, who allegedly beat him to death and dumped his body on a riverbank inside Indian territory, Saidur claimed.

However, the Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) has yet to confirm the incident.

“We have not enough information so far and the victim’s family has not reached out to us,” Lt Col Monir-uz-Zaman, commander of the BGB’s 53rd Battalion in Chapainawabganj, said.

“We are looking into the matter,” he added.
