Almost 60-70% foreigner guests who check into hotels in Baguiati-Kaikhali belt along VIP Road and at Chinar Park on Biswa Bangla Sarani of Kolkata are Bangladeshis.
The purpose of visit for nine out of 10 Bangladeshis is either business or healthcare, reports Times of India.
Hours after CID officers zeroed in on Hotel Blue Moon at Chinar Park, where at least two men involved in the murder of Bangladesh MP Anwarul Azim Anar, had checked in on 14 May and checked out on 17 May, TOI did the rounds of multiple hotels in the vicinity as well as those on VIP Road to find Bangladeshis comprised a sizeable number of overseas guests.
Chinar Park is flanked by several budget hotels. The very building that houses Hotel Blue Moon has another guest house.
