MOGADISHU, Somalia -- The body of a Somali pirate who drowned just after receiving a huge ransom washed onshore with $153,000 in cash, a resident said Sunday."One of them was discovered and they are still looking for the other ones. He had $153,000 in a plastic bag in his pocket".
Five pirates drowned Friday when their small boat capsized after they received a reported $3 million ransom for releasing a Saudi oil tanker. Local resident Omar Abdi Hassan said one of the bodies had been found on a beach near the coastal town of Haradhere and relatives were searching for the other four. Three other pirates survived but also lost their share of the ransom.
