10 months ago Somali pirates hijacked Egyptian-owned ship MV Suez in which 22 crew members comprising six Indians, four Pakistanis, 11 Egyptians and one Sri Lankan. Later they demanded the ransom of $2 million.
Over the past 10 months the family members of the victims (Indian) suffered the most pain. They met the dearest prime minister and external minister of our great country few times. But either of them did not promise the safety of the sailors.
In other words, our Indian govt could not pay the ransom of $2 millions. Is our govt is money less? Is our govt is poor?
Lakhs of crores of rupees were consumed by every corrupt politician in UPA II.
Can’t they (GoI) afford just $2 millions for release of 6 Indians?
And today finally all the crew members got released after paying the ransom by a Pakistani human rights activist Ansar Burney. Yes, he was a Pakistani.
He quoted as follow, “"The Ansar Burney Trust had promised the nation that it would save humanity. There were 4 Pakistanis, 6 Indians, 11 Egyptians and one Sri Lankan. If we had secured the release of only the Pakistanis, it would have been unfair to the others. So we secured the release of all hostages."
Just think..!!
No opposition raised this issue in parliament. No party/politician came forward to save our own people. Finally it was a Pakistani who saved our friends.

macha, they are not working for some indian navy or something, why should the govt. pay $2mil for them, if they had paid for it, then these incidents will be repeated by those pirates, but now the pirates know that Govt of any country is not going to pay for them, isf they continue these attempt and next time no Ansar Burney will come up to pay
Dear M Venkat. I appreciate your concern. But understand the fact that I am not criticizing the GoI here. I just mentioned the facts happened over the past couple of days.
Anyway one more fact you should note is, according to United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea of 1982 and Convention on the high seas of 1958, there is a provision from which the GoI can rescue the people on board.
Did you hear any news of GoI trying to rescue the Indians on board..?? Did you hear any opposition party raised this issue in parliament..??
your post name says "just think"(i got "just think about selfish GoI.")
so, thought u were criticizing GoI.
now i know that u r asking us to think about a pakisthani helping our friends.
i think GoI did the right thing to deny them the money from us
well..not giving them money may appear right thing for some..and for extremists it may not appear right..anyway its just human perspective of watching things around.
