Tura, May 7 (PTI): Residents of a village near Bangladesh border have lodged an FIR against the BSF claiming that Friday's firing by its personnel to stop "cattle smugglers" was actually a fake encounter. BSF had said in a statement that their men posted at Kachu Adokgre in West Garo Hills district apprehended cattle smugglers, who attacked them along with local people, and they had to fire injuring two persons. Villagers of Belabor, however, contested this version and lodged an FIR demanding action against the BSF personnel involved, SP Dr MGR Kumar said today. The district SP said, "We are looking into all aspects of the case and an investigation into what really happened is currently on."
