Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) sepoy Mohammad Raisuddin who was brutally killed in firing by Indian Border Guard Bangladesh (BSF) has been buried with state honour.

He was buried at his village home at Bhabanipur graveyard at Shibganj in Chapainawabganj district on Wednesday evening.
Earlier, the BGB received the body of Mohammad Raisuddin two days after his killing. Later, his first namaj-e-janaza was held at 49 BGB Battalion Headquarters after postmortem of his body at Jashore Sadar General Hospital. From there, the body of the brave soldier was taken to Shibganj upazila stadium by a helicopter. At that time, the body was handed over to the family members.

A pall of gloom was descended when Raisuddin's body reached at his village home. Then his body was buried at Bhabanipur graveyard at about 6:30pm with state honour after namaj-e-janaza there. Members of the Chapainawabganj BGB and Jashore 49 Battalion were present when the body of Raisuddin was handed over.

According to a BGB press release, a patrol team of the BGB challenged a group of cattle smugglers when they were intruding into Bangladesh from India, adjacent to the Jhelepara post area under Benapole upazila, around 5:30am on Monday.

At one stage, the smugglers went back inside the Indian territory, the press release says, adding that BGB member Raisuddin got separated from his team amid dense fog.

Though initially he was not found, later it was known through several sources that he was injured in a BSF firing and was undergoing treatment at an Indian hospital.

The BGB demanded a proper investigation into the incident and sent a protest note to its Indian counterpart.
