#1 Islam said the pirates already killed a hostage of Indian nationality for failing to pay the ransom.

Indian Navy, please call your office.

Seems like a potential win/win for India: they could exact ~~revenge~~ justice and get brownie points for helping out a neighbor.

#2 There's probably no worse fate - than being a captured sailor from Bangladesh. It's BAD when you're from a country that has a lower standard of living than the pirates.
