“He was detained on Friday (December 17) as he was spotted moving at the marketplace of Gandhi Chowk in Madhwapur where the pillar number 295/2 is marked for an international boundary. There is an open border between India and Nepal guarded by SSB. His activities were suspicious hence SSB personnel stopped him. The most alarming thing is that he was carrying the PAN card. He could not produce any document about his entry into India,” sources said.

SSB handed him to local police and he was formally arrested. The Officer-in-charge of Madhwapur police station, Gaya Singh said that that suspected national was formally arrested and sent to jail.

In the past also foreign nationals were arrested in Madhubani for illegally crossing the international border. The major part of North Bihar forming Mithila shares a border with Nepal. From the security point of view, it is quite sensitive since China is situated not too far away.
