Bangladesh: Labour party seeks UN intervention to stop border killing by BSF India

DHAKA, 04 December 2021, (TON): Bangladesh Labor Party urged the United Nations to take initiatives to stop the killing of Bangladesh nationals by the Border Security Force of India along the Bangladesh-India border.

A press release said “the party chairman Mustafizur Rahman Iran made the demand in a human chain formed by the party in front of the National Press Club in Dhaka to protest against border killing by BSF.

Condemning border killings by the BSF, Iran alleged that innocent Bangladesh nationals were being killed by the BSF along the border in violation of the international border law.

He criticised Bangladesh government and said that the government's knee-jerk foreign policy was responsible for the border killings.

Iran alleged that members of the BSF were involved in illegal trade and smuggling along the border.

He urged the Bangladesh government to go to the International Court of Justice for filing a case seeking justice for the victims of border killings.
