Whether the freed men would be brought to Karachi or Gwadar it has not yet been decided, Navy sources said.Earlier, the Captain of MV Suez appealed to Chief of Pakistan Navy seeking immediate help in view of their ship being caught in strong winds and was feared capsize.All the hostages, who were freed by Somali pirates after getting ransom, were in trouble due to a fault in MV Suez and high sea waves.Anser Burney said that efforts were being made simultaneously to safe Pakistanis and Indians, but Indian allegations were condemnable.
