The Indian Navy on Monday said that its offshore patrol vessel INS Sumitra responded to a distress call from an Iranian-flagged fishing vessel hijacked off the Somali coast, and the swift response "coerced the pirates" to release the boat and the crew held hostage.

The mission-deployed vessel's response ensured the safe release of the hijacked boat, Iman, and its crew, the navy said in a statement.
