State media say a North Korean boat has hijacked 29 Chinese fishermen on three separate boats and demanded 1.2 million yuan (US $190,000) for their release. The Beijing Morning Post reported on Thursday that the fishing boats were hijacked in Chinese waters on May 8 and moved to North Korean waters.
