Piracy

Internet pirates 'pour £200m into music industry' ILLEGAL music downloaders, the villains of recording industry campaigns and the targets of new internet piracy laws, spend more on official releases than those who obey the law, a new survey has found.

Ransom hope for yacht pair KIDNAPPED Britons Paul and Rachel Chandler might be freed for much less than the $7 million (£4.2m) ransom demand.

Pirates demand £4m ransom as hostage drama turns political SOMALI pirates holding a retired British couple have justified their demand for more than £4 million in ransom by claiming boats from other countries are plundering Somalia's fish-rich waters.

'We only need a little amount of $7m', say yacht couple's captors THE Somali pirates who kidnapped Britons Paul and Rachel Chandler demanded a ransom of $7 million (£4.25m) last night.
