Seven fishermen abducted from the Sundarbans in Bangladesh’s Satkhira district have returned home after paying a ransom of Tk 180,000 through mobile banking. The men were kidnapped on Sunday while catching crabs in the Malancha River area and released early Wednesday morning after the ransom was paid. The abductees identified themselves as residents of Dakshin Kadamtala village in Shyamnagar upazila. The fishermen reported that their captors initially claimed to be members of the surrendered Don Bahini gang but were later confirmed to belong to a nine-member pirate group known as Nanu Bahini. They alleged that the pirates possessed seven firearms, including one resembling a police or RAB-issued pistol. Some fishermen also claimed that a powerful group based in Parulia, Satkhira, controls the pirates remotely. Local forest officials and police confirmed awareness of the incident and said investigations are underway to identify and apprehend the criminals. Authorities are collecting testimonies from the freed fishermen to trace the network behind the abduction.
