The apprehended smuggler has been identified as Akhtar Islam, age 24, Village – Lavatara, Post Office – Rampur, Police Station – Sarsa, District – Jessore (Bangladesh).
During the initial interrogation, the Bangladeshi smuggler Akhtar Islam revealed that he had come to India illegally across the International Boundary a year ago and used to work as a laborer in Bangalore. He was trying to go back to Bangladesh to meet his family.

Suman provided him the phone number of a Bangladeshi smuggler named Zaidul. Zaidul works as a carrier in Phensedyl smuggling. Zaidul told him to come to Bornberia and from Bornberia when both of them were on their way towards Ichmati river (International Boundary) to go to Bangladesh.
