On top of that, the ship had already been reported by the International Maritime Bureau as having been hijacked .

Combined Task Force 150, which Pakistan operates its anti-piracy activies under, has a formal relationship with the IMB and had received photographs of the trawler earlier that day.

The Indain navy willingly chose to operate operate with no such formal relationship and did not bother to contact the IMB after spotting the trawler to check it if was a hijacked ship that required recuing or not - they chose to shoot first.

While the Pak navy is busy receiving photographs and working through red tapism, Indian navy has conducted operations against the pirates and captured many pirates and destroyed their ships. We have not received any formal complaints yet, so I guess all is well.
