A Dhubri court relieved the 25 from charges and ordered them to be released, he said. On May 3, Indian police arrested 26 Bangladeshi nationals from Dhubri when they were attempting to return home on two minibuses. Indian High Court lawyer Asim Das Gupta and Dhubri court lawyer Rajsvi Das Gupta fought a legal battle on behalf of the detained Bangladeshis. Meanwhile, the Bangladesh authorities took the initiative to bring the detained nationals and requested their Indian counterpart over the issue. Responding to the request, the Indian authorities decided to withdraw the case.
