Deaths during border intrusion or crime should not be termed ‘border killings’: Home Minister

Home Minister Salahuddin Ahmed has said that it is not right to call all deaths that occur on the border as 'border killings'. He said that if a Bangladeshi is killed by foreign forces on the zero line of the border or in the territory of Bangladesh, it can be called a border killing. However, if someone enters another country illegally or is involved in any criminal activity and is killed inside that country, then it will not be right to call him a 'border killing'.
