Any man involved in human trafficking across Indo-Bangla border detained in south Tripura: police | News from India

The GRP officer also said that Jhutan Das was found involved in a human trafficking case registered last year by the National Investigation Agency, which filed a charge sheet in the case.

The arrest took place just one day after a Bangladeshi couple arrested with four Indian touts at Agartala station, where they had arrived by the Kanchanjungha Express.

A series of arrests of drug traffickers, arms traffickers and human traffickers have recently come to light at the station, which authorities suspect is being used as a human trafficking corridor.

Three Bangladeshi nationals who were about to board a train from Tripura to Punjab were arrested at the Chandrapur interstate bus terminus on May 30.

Five days ago, a man from Tripura was arrested along with a woman in possession of a 9mm pistol and ammunition at the same station where they had arrived on board the Jan Shatabdi Express. The day before, five Bangladeshis, including three women, were arrested while trying to board the Tripura Sundari Express bound for Delhi.
