pirates!!!

Tweet

Long long ago robbers called pirates stopped vessels in the mid sea and robbed things in the ship.But last week i read in the paper, a vessel was hijacked but this time the sea pirates didnot rob the ship, but demanded a big ramsum to release the vessel which was with lot of people. The interesting part is that the pirates were given the demanded ransum by the ship owner and got the vessel back.Can you believe this?Has any such incident happened in your country?
