BSF jawan abducted, tied and filmed by Bangladeshi nationals, freed after flag meet
June 06, 2025
On Wednesday morning, a Border Security Force (BSF) jawan stationed at the Chandni Chowk border post in Murshidabad district, West Bengal, was abducted by Bangladeshi nationals.
The incident occurred while the jawan was questioning a group suspected of attempting infiltration. He was forcibly taken into Bangladesh, where he was tied up and filmed. Following a prompt flag meeting between Indian and Bangladeshi border officials, the jawan was successfully rescued and returned. Authorities have since initiated a security review of the area to assess vulnerabilities, but several questions about the breach remain unanswered.
