The Assam High Court has directed authorities to bring back Mamtaj Begum, a woman previously deported to Bangladesh. Begum was initially detained by police in May from the Foreigners Tribunal No. 4 in Nagaon, Assam. She was subsequently pushed back across the border into Bangladesh in June. Details regarding the specific reasons for her initial detention and deportation remain unclear. The High Court’s order mandates her return from Bangladesh for further proceedings. This case raises questions about the process of identifying and deporting individuals deemed non-citizens by Foreigners Tribunals in Assam. The court’s decision indicates a need to review the legality of her initial deportation and ensure due process is followed.
