TIPRA Motha MLA writes to HC seeking custodial trial of illegal migrants

Agartala, June 25 (UNI) The ruling BJP’s ally TIPRA Motha MLA Ranjit Debbarma wrote to Chief Justice of High Court of Tripura, calling for urgent and stringent action against illegal migrants from Bangladesh, along with their Indian collaborators, including unfit bailors, dishonest advocates, and mediators.
He said hundreds of Bangladeshi nationals are being arrested in Tripura by law enforcement agencies but are later granted bail in the court. After coming out of jail, many of them have absconded without going back to Bangladesh. They have been residing in India using false documents and hiding their identities.
Debbarma expressed serious concern that these individuals, aided by certain advocates and bailors, are deliberately avoiding court proceedings. A growing trend of illegal migrants assuming false identities, including religious identities, to stay undetected in India.
The letter accused Indian facilitators who managed to fabricate documents to support these migrants, with the police allegedly showing inaction despite clear evidence of forged paperwork. Referring to a specific case involving one Kajal Sarker of Mohanpur, near Agartala, identified as an Indian middleman, Debbarma cited ongoing legal proceedings.
The MLA requested the High Court to ensure a custody trial for the arrested illegal migrants and an immediate pushback order after sentencing. He also urged the Court to initiate strong punitive action against the involved Indian collaborators to safeguard national security and uphold the sovereignty of India.
