Police hold 5 men suspected of piracy

Police intercepted a boat yesterday with five crew members at Eversham, Corentyne after fishermen recognized that it had been used to carry out a piracy attack on them earlier this month.

The crew members are being held at the police stations at No 51 Village and Springlands. The grey-coloured boat which was equipped with fishing gear is being held at the No 66 Fisheries wharf.
