Three personnel martyred as PMSA launch sinks in Arabian Sea

Yeah imagine that, they were arresting Indian fishermen for such minor trespassing, when they themselves "drifted" into Indian waters! I guess Indian allegations of PMSA unnecessarily harassing our fishermen stands proven. Small, unintentional trespassing can happen to the best of the sailors it seems, including professional coast guard sailors!

Besides, other newspapers are reporting quite a different version of what went down,

Sources said a fleet of PMSA boats had reportedly rushed into Indian waters, when seven Indian boats were busy fishing about 70 nautical miles from Jhakhau coast.

"The PMSA boats rounded up seven Indian fishing boats namely Uma Shakti, Parshu Ram, Trishul, Savan, Ashirvad, Kishan Kanahiya, Baba Jalluddin and Mahenoor," said a source.

"While escorting them to Karachi coast, one of the Indian boats broke down resulting in a collision with one of the small fast boats of PMSA. The PMSA boat with six Pak marine commandos capsized," the source said, adding, "ICG ship "Arinjay" rushed in and found two bodies which were handed over to PMSA."

OK first of all do not I repeat quite shitty Indian media source. When your own MOD says that Indian media should properly investigate news first and then post.

Everyone including you know of shitty Indian sensational reporting. So quoting from shitty Indian source deserves no merit.
Secondly, are you questioning The wisdom of IN over shitty Indian media source ?? Like really ?

Those professionals of uniformed people know better when someone' is trespassing or someone is in distress which is why they responded in professional manner and assisted.

I'm surprised that you're actually questioning the credibility of IN the institution which in mneyes is more respectable out of other two, since it does does have the greed for foreign maal ov cheap sgitty Indian media. Bravo

Firstly, IN is not involved at all. Indian Coast Guard is a separate entity, under the Home Ministry.

Secondly, am not doubting the official statements. The point am trying to raise is that the fishing boats were really close to the international maritime border, yet they were being apprehended. Drifting a short distance out in the open sea is very much possible, and as mentioned in the news can even happen to the coast guard boats as well! In that light, is it ethical to arrest these fishermen and seize their boats?

Indian sources is all we have, you can't pick and chose which one you want to call shitty and which one credible, according to your own agenda.

thanks.
we would have done the same. But any way. thanks alot.

All reported by cheap sensational shitty Indian media thats says it all.

If anything, you're deliberately questioning the Coast guard guys. Was the damn reporter on board the ship when this all happened? If any thing like this happened would coast guard let go off the sailors ?

What are you trying to say ?

The second shitty source is totally worthless as it is cheap reporting

Two were rescued by the Coast Guard and one has gone missing.

In a freak accident in mid sea off the Gujarat coast, three commandos of the Pakistan Maritime Security Agency (PMSA) lost their lives, one has gone missing and two rescued by the Indian Coast Guard.


Coast Guard ship Arinjay, on receiving a message of accident, reached the spot and found three bodies found floating. Its personnel rescued two commandos. The rescued and the bodies were handed over to the PMSA, sources said.

The Coast Guard has alerted coastal police stations in Gujarat on the missing commando.

A fleet of PMSA boats allegedly entered the Indian territorial waters around 70 nautical miles off the Jakhau port and started rounding up a dozen Indian fishing trawlers which were on a fishing expedition. When they were being escorted to be taken to the Karachi port, fishing trawler Mahenoor broke down and collided with a small fast boat of the PSMA, causing it to capsize with the six commandos on board.

After the Coast Guard officials handed over the bodies to the PMSA, the latter, on its part, released the Indian boats, including the one that caused the accident.

"The incident occurred in the early hours of Monday and the Coast Guard's Okha based ship, Arinjay was pressed into service," a source from Kutch told The Hindu.

The names of the Indian boats were given as Uma Shakti, Parsuram, Trishul, Savan, Ashirvad, Kishan Kanhaiya, Baba Tajuddin and Mehnoor.

The incident took place approximately 10 nautical miles within the Indian waters.

The PMSA is a civilian force similar to the Coast Guard. It is not part of the Pakistan Navy and I wasn't aware that the PMSA had 'special forces/commandos'.

It was martime security not commandoes

Coast Guard is part of Armed forces in india,a different branch altogether .. not civilian.
And operations like these are conducted by "marines" of Pakistan Navy (PMSA)...and your Coast guard is under your army.. which makes your structure complex.
