PNS Baber Attacked by Somali Pirate

[siegecrossbow]

I won't be surprised if it is true. The pirates often make the mistake of attacking military vessels.

This is an interesting development.

I think PN should team up with other navies and get rid of them once and for all. But most importantly, why is Nauman Bashir denying this incident? he always does that. :s

we didn't pay for the indians!
we paid for the hostages!! they weren't asking $20 million for pakistanis or indians only.
that money was the price for everyone's freedom!

One attack on PN and every Pakistani is out for the blood of Somali Pirates. its funny these were the same people who advised IN not to kill or arrest the Somali pirates, but should just allow them to escape. Some even justified the pirate's action by saying that the pirates are ex-fisherman trying to make a living.

No need. There already exists an international coalition.

Heck man! Show some humanism for a change! Don't act and behave like an illiterate pirate yourself. Show some maturity in thought. The color of our blood is the same, right? Or is your's a special purple?

And you ain't paying from YOUR pocket. So just pipe down and grow up!

Cheers!

I think the pirates were thinking of to capture the PNS Babur so next time they will hover on a naval frigate to hostage the un-armed ships

Not a bad idea lol

the event have unfoiled and the situation is now clear. the PNS Babur was never attacked by the pirates rather it was the freed MV Suez that again came under an attack that was not a suces as PNS Babur approaches to escort the vessel.

Indian Navy ditches MV Suez, Pakistan comes to rescue
Cargo ship MV Suez, which was recently released by pirates, was attacked again this morning, and when it contacted the Indian Navy for help, their request was turned down, the ship’s captain told dnaindia.com.

“Four Somali pirates got on to the ship early morning and started firing at us," said Ravinder Singh, the cargo ship’s captain. “We fired parachute rockets at them and threw containers in an attempt to fend ourselves. One of them was injured in the process, which scared them off and they fled.”

When the ship contacted the Indian Navy, they were promised help in the form of patrolling.

“But they never sent any helicopters to look over us in spite of promising to come around for vigilance,” Singh said. “And now they have stopped taking our calls. We are disappointed with the navy. The Pakistani government was faster in responding to our plea.”

The Pakistani Navy has dispatched its warship PNS Babur to escort MV Suez safely Salalah in Oman. Food supplies, medicines and water are among the things that the warship is carrying for the exhausted crew members, some of who are ill too.

The captian also confirmed that Pakistani helicopters are now patrolling the area around the ship. "The choppers will stick around for protection till the warship arrives here," Captain Singh said.
