And if you want to travel safe, you have to let the border security in on the plan, which makes it even more pricey. One way to counter it is to smuggle the cattle much earlier than when the demand increases significantly before Eid-ul-Azha, several cattle traders and smugglers told the Dhaka Tribune. “Usually when we bring cattle from India, we first contact Indian traders to ‘place an order,’ giving them the number of cattle we need. “Once the fund transaction is complete, the Indian traders give us serial numbers of the cattle we are supposed to collect.”Then the Indian traders hand over the cattle to a cattle rearer living close to the border. We only require the local traders to ensure that the Indian traders leave the cattle at the No Man’s Land.
