North Sentinel Island

A 24-year-old US national was arrested for illegally going to the Northern Sentinel Island in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands on 31st March. The man named Mykhailo Viktorovych Polyakov was reportedly arrested by the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) for attempting to venture into the forbidden island without authorisation.

The DGP of Andaman Police has stated that they are seeking to examine two of Chau's associates under MLAT and are preparing the documents to be routed through the MEA.

Chau in his notes has estimated the number of Sentinelese people to be 250.

All individuals who aided his travel being aware of his intentions should be charged with sedition laws, demanded ABVP.

All Nation's conduct appears to be hazardous to the health of its missionaries.

John Allen Chau wanted to 'establish the Kingdom of Jesus on the island'.

John's diary reveals he knew he was violating rules, but media trying to prove he did not break any law

The Sentinelese have been on the radar of Christian Missionaries for a while now.

Sometimes, the best we can do for people is stay away from them. The issue revolving around the Sentinalese tribe is one such instance.
