China urges North Korea to release Chinese fishing boat, 16 crew; owner says ransom demanded China says it is urging North Korea to release a Chinese fishing boat whose owner publicized the plight of its 16 crew in an online account saying they were seized by gun-wielding North Koreans earlier this month and held for ransom. Yu Xuejun, who wasn’t aboard the boat, wrote on his microblog late Saturday that North Koreans seized his boat on May 5 in what he says were Chinese waters and that they demanded a 600,000 yuan ($100,000) ransom.

China urges North Korea to release Chinese fishing boat, 16 crew; owner says ransom demanded Yu said the North Korean side had asked for the ransom to be paid by noon Sunday to a company in Dandong, a city in northeastern China on the North Korean border, or they would confiscate the boat and repatriate the crew. Now that I look at that, I realize I lost a day somewhere and that deadline has past. However, it is a very active topic in twitterville, and the MSM has been reporting on it in the last couple of hours. Last Edited by Canuck_Hillbilly on 05/19/2013 10:41 PMMy opinions are just that.
