FBI agents are investigating the Somali pirates who hijacked a US ship and are holding its captain hostage, US officials said Saturday, raising the possibility of federal charges against the men if they are captured.
Even as Navy warships were in a stand-off with the pirates floating in a lifeboat in the Indian Ocean, FBI agents from New York were investigating how the hijacking unfolded, according to two officials who spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorised to discuss the case.
