BSF seizes motor parts near border

MALDA, Nov. 18: The border security force (BSF), acting on a tip off from its 123-battalion, seized at least 14 big sacks full of spare parts of four motor cycles, near Nadirkhana village along India-Bangladesh border under English Bazaar police station today morning.

According to BSF officials, a group of more than 10 people were trying to cross the border from the Indian side carrying those sacks at 3 a.m. They fled the spot leaving the bags behind after the BSF jawans chased them, officials said.

The BSF officials suspect that these people were trying to smuggle the parts of four motorcycles that were allegedly stolen from the Indian side. The BSF officials also found three number plates of motor cycles in the packets such as WB 66-D-3301 and WB 66-B 3387. One number plate was blank like that of a new motor cycle. n SNS
