BANDARBAN: Brigadier General Sayeed Ahammad Ali, regional commander of Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) Battalion-31,  on Sunday said they would ask the Myanmar's Border Guard Police (BGP) why they have brought such incident.

He also said, “A sector commander-level flag meting between the two countries is scheduled to be held on June 5. We will seek reply over the incident from them.” 

“They (BGP) staged many dramas and initiated propaganda against us after the incident. We also will seek reply over them,” he said.

Sayeed Ahammad Ali made the disclosures while briefing the journalists at BGB 31 Battalion office on Sunday noon.

Regarding the issue, BGB commander told: “We shall carry out friendship as long as it will not cause us any harm.”
