July 17, 2012
The autopsy on the Indian fisherman killed by the US Navy will be conducted soon. External Affairs Minister S M Krishna has sought a report on the incident from Indian Ambassador to Dubai M K Lokesh apart from asking the government there to investigate the case, official sources said in New Delhi.
An Indian fisherman was killed and three others were wounded on Monday when a security team on board a US Navy ship fired at their small boat off Dubai.
The fishing boat had four Indians and two Emirate nationals on board when the incident took place in Jabel Ali, a frequent docking point for American naval vessels about 30 miles southwest of Dubai, according to an UAE official.
