Pirates Seized
Police from Somalia's semi-autonomous region of Puntland seized 43 pirates during operations against pirates in the village of Garacad in Puntland's Mudug region, senior officials said.
Officials reported that police seized the pirates along with their weapons and vessels, in the midst of planning new operations. "We succeeded at clearing the pirates from the coasts around the Garacad village; we seized 43 pirates, some weapons and a number of boats. The operations are now on-going," Jama Mohamoud, commander of Police in Jariban District, told the press.
A police officer in Puntland told Somalia Report that the operations against pirates will be continue the coming days until the pirates are gone from the Garacad, Ceel Dhanaane and Jariban districts. "Now the police have evicted the pirates from Jariban district and Garacad village, and in coming days the police will clear out Ceel Dhanaane and with the help of residents remove pirates. We are demonstrating that Puntland is willing and ready to remove pirates from all regions," officer Abshirayto told Somalia Report.
Recent regional conferences on piracy were well-attended, and elders and traditional leaders from Garacad and Jariban areas have declared that they are ready to support operations against the pirates.
