The Australian government in association with Indonesia has ordered to confiscate the ship carrying nearly 300 Tamils from Sri Lankan camps seeking refugee in Australian soil.
Bribing the boat carriers in Sri Lanka, a group of people boarded a ship to reach Australia but were taken into custody by Indonesian navy. The naval authorities tried to force them out of the ship but the people inside threatened to commit suicide by blasting the cylinders. As of now they are in the shores while Australia is mulling to settle them in the detention centres which is already over flowing with a population of nearly 1, 000 people.

A nine year old girl in the ship has vent out her agony and pain in a tear filled interview to the Australian television channel ABC.
Speaking to the reporter, she said, "Do consider us as your sisters and brothers. We are unable to live in the horrible conditions in Sri Lanka and seek to live in somewhere habitable. There is no need to settle in Australia but any other country in the world who would give us protection and save us from the misery."

The government is etching plans to expand the detention centres in news regions to accommodate the people and also to face the waves of illegal immigrants arriving from the war zone of Sri Lanka.
