The Navy disclosed one of its sailor, Sgt. Maj. Alfriansyah, had been allegedly abducted by a group of Thai fishermen.
The man was reportedly abducted after he had witnessed a group of fishermen fishing in Bintan waters, which is Indonesian territory.
'Alfriansyah and a local fisherman approached the Thai fishermen's boat, to collect evidence. But neither returned,' Commodore Agus Heriyana told The Jakarta Post on Friday.
He said a team of investigators were in pursuit of the boat.
The incident happened on Tuesday but the locals only reported the incident to the Naval authorities a day later. (dic)
