Gangtok, Aug 6 (PTI) The Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) has decided to send three Chinese nationals, who had intruded into the country through Indo-Sino border in Sikkim, back to China, highly placed sources said today.
The Chinese nationals of Tibetan origin were arrested by the army from Katau area in north Sikkim nearly two months ago and interrogated by intelligence agencies.
