The Northern Naval Command deployed its Fast Attack Craft to chase away a cluster of Indian poaching trawlers, after having spotted they were engaging in illegal fishing in Sri Lankan waters on January 13.
The three Indian poaching trawlers with 12 Indian fishermen, were brought to the Kankesanthurai harbour and they will be handed over to the Mailadi Fisheries Inspector for legal action.
