The Ministry of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries (KKP) through the Directorate General of Marine and Fishery Resources Supervision (PSDKP) arrested three units of foreign Malaysian-flagged fishing thieves in the waters of the Malacca Strait.
"The three ships all came from Malaysia, which carried out fishing in the waters of the Malacca Strait using a prohibited fishing gear, namely trawl, without the permit documents in force in Indonesia," said PSDKP Director General of KKP Pung Nugroho Saksono in Medan, Thursday, December 5.
The man who will be called Ipung said the arrest of the ship began with reports from the public, as well as visually detected radar in the Malacca Strait in the region.
Furthermore, the patrol team using the Shark 16 ship commanded by Albert Essing gave chase, and secured three ships in the strait along with 16 people from Myanmar (30/11).
