Heard a rumour that the Royal Navy on the instructions of the UK Govt, has arrested two UK nationals who were part of a security team onboard a ship which had an attemmpted boarding repelled.

Apparently the two had shot at the pirates at a distance before the attempted boarding and it was deemed as excessive force !! One or more pirates dead and the rest scattered - boarding abandoned.

Been searching the usual news sources online but no trace.

I thought that UK law does not apply in International Waters? Interested pecause a pal of mine does exactly this, private security on tankers. 2 x GPMGs, 2 x .50 Cal brownings and some .338 AIs. Oh and about £300,000 each tax free.
