At around 8:30 p.m., Constable Sandeep Kumar, suddenly came and started arguing with the villagers. When one Mr. Kanu Miah protested against the behaviour of the jawan, the said BSF jawan thrashed him and left. When an alarm was raised in this regard, many villagers instantly gathered at the spot. At this juncture, Constable Sandeep Kumar, suddenly advanced from NAKA Point towards the villagers and began firing indiscriminately from his service weapon without any caution to the villagers. On account of the indiscriminate firing, the victim died at the spot and more than 12 civilians received injuries. A large number of people also assembled there and seeing the scenario the said BSF constable committed suicide using his service rifle. A case under section 302/307/326 and 28 of the Arms Act was registered against the BSF personnel who got abated on account of death. An amount of ` 120,000 was sanctioned for cost of medicine in connection with treatment of 10 injured persons by SDM, Sadar and an amount of ` 15,000 (Rupees fifteen thousand only) was paid to the wife of deceased victim. 4.47 The Commission considered the matter on 22.05.2017 and observed that it stands established that the victim died on account of the injuries suffered in the indiscriminate firing by the BSF soldier on 6 June 2014. The compensation of ` 15,000 rendered by the SDM, Sadar is highly inadequate. Hence, the Commission directed the Government of Tripura to pay a compensation of ` 3,00,000 to the family of the victim. 4.48 52 The compliance report is awaited. Annual Report 2017-2018
