The Malaysian Maritime Enforcement Agency (MMEA) foiled a fish-bombing activity in waters off Pulau Sakar, here, on Thursday.

MMEA Lahad Datu Zone Director Commander Dr Suzanna Razali Chan said a MMEA patrol craft, while carrying “Ops Pluto Timur” and “Ops Tiris”, spotted a boat moving in a suspicious manner.

She said two men on board, upon realising the presence of MMEA, jumped into the sea and escaped to a coastal area.

“An inspection showed the boat committed an offence under Section 26 of the Fisheries Act 1985.”
