JOWAI: The Jaintia Youth Federation (JYF) on Thursday apprehended 15 suspected Bangladeshi nationals in Jowai.

All the apprehended persons were on their way from Dhubri (Assam) to Ladrymbai in a truck.

They came in search of works in coal mines of Khliehriat sub-Division.

According to JYF president, PP Majaw, the truck in which they were travelling broke down at Riat-turiem near Jowai. The JYF handed over all the apprehended persons to Jowai Police after they failed to produce any valid document.
