Shillong:
A 40-year-old Indian woman died after she, along with two others, were assaulted by suspected Bangladeshi nationals along the Meghalaya-Bangladesh border.
The three women of Nongskhen village were going to a bazar through on a jungle road adjacent to the Indo-Bangla border when they were assaulted. One of them, Ropal Malngian,
succumbed to the injuries, the Border Security Force (BSF) said in a statement on Tuesday.
"As per preliminary post-mortem report, Ropal died due to head injury as she was hit with sharp weapons," the BSF said.
The two other women - 25-year-old Baro Ryngksai and 32-year-old Aslin - were injured.
The BSF immediately lodged a protest note with BDR and a company commander level flag meeting was held between the two forces on Monday evening.
BDR, acting on the input of BSF, identified the attackers as Manik Miya, Fyzul Rahaman, Noor Islam, Shakir Ali, Kosir Miya and Jahirduddin all hailing from Sylhet.
BDR is investigating the case. Two arrests have been made, the statement said.
