AGARTALA / KOLKATA, Oct 17 (TIWN): The BSF Officer Dipak Mandal who was injured while counter attacking cattle smugglers at Sonamura, is left in deep coma, a BSF Official said.

The cattle smugglers attacked a Border Security Force (BSF) commanding officer along the Indo-Bangla border in Tripura in the early hours on Monday.

He was patrolling the area with his team to check cattle smuggling and other illegal activities along the international border which is “unfenced” . Mondal saw some cattle smugglers and challenged them, he said, adding the officer along with his guard and driver tried to stop them.

The group of about 25 smugglers were carrying bricks, lathis and machetes. When challenged, the smugglers tried to gherao the officer and the patrol party. Smugglers’ vehicle hit the officer from behind and he sustained severe injury to his head.
