SHILLONG:  Meghalaya Chief Minister, Conrad Sangma has sought a full report from the DGP about the recent incidents where Bangladeshi criminals crossed over to Indian territory in West Jaintia Hills and assaulted BSF personnel besides assaulting and robbing people.

“I have asked the DG to send me a complete report on this as it requires information to come from the centre as well,” he said

Asked if he will speak to the BSF, he said it all depended on the report from the DGP.

There has been a spate of attacks by miscreants on civilians in the border areas. In the latest such incident, two BSF personnel were assaulted and a house robbed by the attackers who then fled back to Bangladesh.

Soon after the incident, the Border Security Force (BSF) has told the Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) that such intrusion would not be tolerated and could even lead to untoward incidents.

The BSF also warned that its non-lethal stance should not be construed as weakness.
