In a significant development, five Bangladeshis were apprehended on Monday in West Bengal's South 24 Parganas district. They stand accused of illegal entry into India and securing employment at a local cloth mill under false pretenses.

The individuals, who rented accommodation in Sonarpur, reportedly forged documents to disguise their identities and evade detection, according to a senior police official.
