35 return from Indian jail

Twenty-nine Bangladeshi women and six children returned home through Benapole check post on Friday after serving three years' jail in an Indian prison. 

They entered Indian territory through several border points of Benapole in 2012, said Iqbal Hossain, officer-in-charge of Benapole immigration police.

The human traffickers sent them to India, promising good jobs there. Later, police arrested them from Mumbai in India and filed a case in this connection.

An Indian court sentenced the arrestees to three years' imprisonment each for crossing the border without valid documents.

Two countries of home ministry agree to return them to Bangladesh.
