Cedros fishermen attacked by pirates
Cedros fishermen are calling for more patrols, saying Venezuelan pirates are attacking local fishermen in territorial waters.
A day after Minister of National Security Stuart Young visited Cedros, pirates accosted a group of fishermen off the Bonasse jetty and stole their nets. During an interview at Fullarton Beach on Monday, fisherman Raesh Ramdass said it was becoming impossible to fish in local waters because the Venezuelan pirates were operating openly at nights under the noses of the T&T Coast Guard. He said the pirates have moved out of the Venezuelan rivers and were looking for easy targets on the open seas.
