BN863 of 615 note not 605.

Stalled at low level and crashed 8m SW of JIGARGAMHA.

Afraid I cannot find where that is.

Alex, Been nearly 12 years, but here is a clue based on my SEAC Losses database

http://www.rafcommands.com/database/...php?uniq=BN863

Operating Airfield - Jessore. Ac crashed on the "Calcutta Side of town (Jessore) about 8 miles out"

In google earth, 8 m SW of Jessore is the town Jhikargacha .. draw the line further out - and it will be Calcutta. So probably a mistake in transcription.
