The Border Security Force (BSF) apprehended a 36-year-old Chinese man near the India-Bangladesh border on Thursday and confiscated 1,300 Indian SIM cards from him.

The Chinese national apprehended while trying to cross the India-Bangladesh border illegally told the investigators that he and his associates have smuggled as many as 1,300 Indian SIM cards into their country by hiding them in undergarments, the Border Security Force (BSF) said on Friday.
