However, the Badarpur police source informed that both of them have been involved in scamming people for a very long time. According to sources, six Ukrainian citizens were arrested by Bangladesh Police in connection with an international ATM scam. after serving a term of more than two years, both of them were released recently.

Police sources added that both of them got into an agreement with a “dalal” who helped them enter India through the Tripura border. They managed to cross the borders without any documents.
