Agartala, Dec 11 (TIWN) Even as security forces continued their combing operations to rescue three workers kidnapped on the India-Bangladesh border, police and BSF officials suspect the abductees might have been taken by terrorists to the neighbouring country as the crime spot was just on the border.

Tripura Police Additional Director General (Law and Order) Rajiv Singh said on Friday: "We are making all efforts to rescue the three workers who were engaged in fencing along the international border, apart from a small trader abducted earlier. We have requested the Assam and Mizoram authorities to search their areas to find out any terrorist hideout or any captive."  A senior Border Security Force official said that they have approached Border Guards Bangladesh to search in their areas to locate the kidnapped workers.
