Some questions remained to unanswered about the Chinese ship episode.
What would have happened if the Chinese ship had not anchored at Kandla Port? If it had no cargo to download at Kandla, it would have moved to Pakistan straight in which case suspected cargo would have landed there. How does a country monitor movement of such vessels on high seas and take action of seizure etc?
Apparently, the ship was cleared to go out and was almost sailing out of the Port but was stopped last minute. This means the port authorities had indeed no clue about the contents being carried inside the ship. Thus, do our ports lack technical wherewithal to identify such cargo? If so, how to handle this situation?
We need some clarity on these issues as well. hopefully, the author with her experience in this area should be able to comment on them.
The ship was intercepted and forced to dock in Kandla. Intelligence agents were probably tracking the shipment from China or the US itself and seized it when they could.
