Dhaka, July 07 – At least 450 fishermen with 32 Indian fishing trawlers have been taken in safe custody by Paira Sea Port coastguard in Kalapara under Patuakhali district on Sunday afternoon. As the sea was clogged due to hostile weather, the Coast Guard members took their Paira Sea Port from the deep sea area while they catching fish by crossing Bangladeshi water borderline on Sunday noon. Later coastguard kept them in custody.
Paira Sea Port Coast Guard Contingent Commander Rezaul Karim said, ‘the names of the trawlers and fishermen are being listed, as many trawlers are said to be time-consuming, he said. The Coast Guard is also investigating whether there are any illegal items in the trawlers.’
Kalapara Assistant Commissioner (Land) Anup Kumar Das said, ‘the fishermen are inhabitants of West Bengal in India and everybody speaks Bangla.’
