An Indian fishing trawler has sunk after allegedly ramming a Sri Lankan navy vessel that was driving out poachers.
The Navy said the incident took place late yesterday, with rescuers still searching one of the trawler’s missing crew members.
Two other fishermen from the boat had been rescued.
On Sunday, fishermen took to the sea in a protest that called on authorities to block Indian fishing boats from their waters and end bottom trawling.
