Late on Friday night, a Pakistani citizen named Md Saifullah was caught by the jawans of the 41st battalion of Sashastra Seema Bal in Kolkata. He had illegally crossed the Indo-Nepal international border in Darjeeling district, located in the northern sector of West Bengal. The jawans also apprehended two Nepali citizens who were traveling with Saifullah in a car, attempting to enter the Indian territory.
The three individuals were handed over to the local Kharibari Police Station, according to an official from the Darjeeling district police. They will be brought before a district court on Saturday. Sources say that the Pakistani citizen did not possess the necessary documents or visa to enter India and was noticed by the central forces personnel while in the car with the two Nepali citizens who had also crossed the border into India.
Upon questioning, none of the three individuals were able to provide a satisfactory explanation for their actions, leading to their arrest and subsequent handover to the district police. This is not the first time that the 41st battalion of SSB has caught Pakistani citizens illegally crossing the Indo-Nepal border. In November of last year, two Pakistani citizens, a woman named Sayesta Hanif and her young son Ariyan Mohammad Hanif, were arrested at Panitanki in Darjeeling district.
During interrogation, the arrested duo admitted to entering India without the required visa and documents. They had boarded a bus from Kakarbhitta in the Jhapa district of Nepal and crossed the border into India through Panitanki. This recent incident of Saifullah and the Nepali citizens attempting to enter India illegally serves as a reminder of the importance of border security and the diligence of the 41st battalion of SSB in protecting our nation's borders.
