Members of Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) rescued 12 people, including three women and a child, from Sadipur border early yesterday while they were being trafficked to India. The victims hailed from Narail and Gopalganj districts. Acting on a tip-off, a BGB team raided the area in the early hours and rescued the victims, said Rafiqul Islam, in-charge of BGB Benapole. Later, they were handed over to Benapole Port Police Station, he said. However, no one was arrested as the human traffickers fled the scene sensing the presence of the border guards.
