Bandarban: Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) has strongly protested the firing on Naikkhanchhari border by Border Guard Police (BGP) of Myanmar that killed an innocent Bangladeshi national.

Confirming the formal protest against the BGP firing incident that also left another Bangladeshi missing, BGB Battalion Commander Lt Col Shafiul Azam Pervez said the BGP was yet to reply to the protest note.

The Myanmar BGP said they were not involved in the two separate firing incidents in two border areas on Monday and Tuesday.

The BGP also told the BGB that Myanmar Army might be involved in the firing incidents.
