It's not much, but it's been a slow month. Shutter gun must be in the shop for it's annual tuneup. Agartala, Oct 04: A 63-year-old tribal woman was killed in a crossfire between the Border Security Force and and a group of people at Thalcherra area bordering the Chittagong hill tract of Bangladesh, police said on Thursday.
Ah, fall in the Chittagong hills.
A group of people moving towards the BSF camp were spotted by a sentry on-duty and when challenged they resorted to firing, they said.
"Halt!"
"It's da law! Open fire, granny!"
The BSF retaliated and following a brief exchange of gunfire the group fled to the jungles.
"Orthopedic shoes, don't fail me...Ouch!"
During search, the bullet-riddled body of the woman, identified as Saswati Tripura was found. The woman might have been caught in the crossfire and killed, they said.
"Might have happened that way. She is dead, that we're sure of."
Senior police officials visited the area.
"You're correct, officer. She's dead as a doornail."
