Nabbed Somalian pirate expressed his great love for India
Mumbai: On Sunday one of the Somalian brigands, caught in the second anti-piracy strike by the Indian Navy and Coast Guard off Lakshadweep islands, says he hopes to fulfill just one dream after his release of touring India.
In broken English he said, “I love India.” He was one of the 28 pirates aboard Prantalay-11, the mother ship in a fleet of three Thai fishing trawlers that had been hijacked in April last year.
The pirate said, “I have seen India on television and have started loving it. I want to visit every Indian city.” Hands and legs tied together before further questions could be asked, the Coast Guard officials took him.
Amazingly the articles seized from the pirates, other than weaponry, officials found several DVDs of Bollywood films!!
