Hijacking Murders in the Golden Triangle: Over 10 Chinese Sailors Massacred
2011 October 5th noon, a Chinese ship (Hua Ping) and a Burmese/Myanma ship (Yu Xing 8) were hijacked by an unknown armed group. The over 10 crew members of both ships were Chinese sailors. The location of the hijacking was the Golden Triangle between the borders of the three countries of Thailand, Laos, and Myanmar. The unidentified armed group used guns to force the Chinese crew to increase speed sailing towards Thailand. When the ship sailed into Thailand, they encountered Thai water police and both sides exchanged fire. Afterward the Thai water police boarded these two ships. Apart from discovering a male body in the mess hall of the Yu Xing 8, there was no one else on the ships but traces of blood were everywhere. Found on the ship were over 900,000 tablets of illegal drugs. The Chinese crew were all missing. Now bodies have been found on the Mekong River, with one verified to be the captain of the Hua Ping, with another being a sailor for the Yu Xing 8. Both died very brutally, the captain with both hands handcuffed together, and two bullet holes in his abdomen. The sailor’s head wrapped with tape and innumerable bullet holes on his back. Another sailor’s body is currently being salvaged and identified. |
