Pakistan-bound ship with military supplies for UN detained by WB Police.
A Pakistan-bound vessel from Chittagong port with heavy military supplies, including explosives, was detained by West Bengal police at Diamond Harbour in the Indian state yesterday.
Police, Coast Guard and navy were cordoning off the ship, searching it and verifying documents, reports our New Delhi correspondent Pallab Bhattacharya. Men aboard the ship were being interrogated.
"Five tonnes of explosives, a huge quantity of arms and ammunition were found after police detained the vessel," said Director General of WB Police Bhupinder Singh said in Kolkata.
The Chittagong Port Authority (CPA) however said it was a consignment of army supplies used by UN mission and being taken to Karachi for unloading. CPA Chairman RU Ahmed told The Daily Star that some equipment used by UN mission were unloaded at the port on June 15 under supervision.
Asked which types of equipment, he simply said some vehicles and some other goods stuffed in containers.
He said the equipment used by UN mission are usually carried in and out through this way.
Pallab Bhattacharya quoted Inspector General of Police (Law and Order) S Karpurakayastha as saying the arms and ammunition were seized from two large containers aboard the ship registered in Liberia.

India as usual taking its que from Israel. Copying and pasting Israeli actions. The irony is these followers dream to be a leader.
