From the Australian Navy.
On Tuesday 25 May 2010, the Royal Australian Navy interdicted a vessel suspected of involvement in piracy operations in the Gulf of Aden.Below are photos of the visiting, boarding, and inspection of the suspect boats.
During a counter-piracy patrol, HMAS Parramatta located a suspect vessel in the vicinity of a route heavily trafficked by merchant shipping frequently targeted by Somali pirates.
Parramatta’s Operations Officer, Lieutenant Tony Nagle, said that at the time the vessel or ‘skiff’ was sighted by Parramatta, the suspected pirates were throwing a range of items overboard, including suspected weapons.
Why bother arresting these clowns. Deep six their asses, keep mouth shut about it. and watch as Somali Piracy becomes less and less of a problem!
