A story in a
Bangladeshi newspaper claiming that Bangladeshi fishermen were wounded by
Myanmar Navy forces is false, the State Counsellor Office’s Information
Committee said in a press release yesterday.
In the news
report posted in the Dhaka-based Daily Star online media at 9:49 pm on December
27 under the headline “6 Bangladeshis shot in Myanmar firing at Bay”, it was
claimed that Myanmar Navy Forces attacked a Bangladeshi fishing boat near the
St. Martin Island in the Bay of Bengal on the morning of December 27, injuring
6 fishermen. The Office of the Commander-in-Chief (Navy) said it did not make
any attacks on the ship, it is learnt.
