Captured British sailing team set free PDF Print E-mail

Pirates have released the five British sailing team members after a week.

The Britons were captured when pirates seized their vessel, which had strayed into Iranian waters.

The 183-metre racing yacht, ‘Kingdom of Bahrain’ had strayed less than 460 metres into Iranian territorial waters as it sailed from Bahrain to Dubai to promote international sailing and water sports.

The team was captured on November 25, one day before they were scheduled to participate in the Dubai-Muscat Offshore Sailing Race.
