Joint probe into border killings necessary

Jabunnaher, On e-mail
Day by day the India-Bangladesh border is becoming a death trap for the Bangladeshi people. At present not one day goes by without any Bangladeshi getting killed by BSF on the border. Moreover, India advises us to say the word 'death' instead of 'killing'. Previously, the BSF chief said that the BSF men should not be held guilty for these killings. These extra-judicial killings are a violation of human rights. India is always giving us word that they will take necessary steps to stop border killing. But in reality we see the opposite. They are not sincere in keeping their promises. It is very necessary to conduct a joint investigation into the matter. If we let these incidents of killing go un-investigated and the responsible BSF men unpunished, the number of killing will be increasing.
