Killings by BSF must be stopped

We learned from newspaper reports that 20 Bangladeshis were killed and 29 were injured by the BSF in the last five months. We are aghast by the news and abhor this action of BSF. This killing spree has been going on for a long time but the Indian government is not doing anything to stop it. India has borders with other countries but no one is killed there; they choose Bangladesh for their target practice.

We demand that the Indian government take the matter seriously and stop the killings immediately. This is not the way to act by a nation who claims to be a friend of Bangladesh.
