American killed by bow and arrow-wielding tribe while trying to visit remote Indian island

An American tourist trying to visit a lush, remote island in India has been killed by a tribe completely cut off from the outside world and known to attack outsiders with bows and arrows, police revealed Wednesday.

Indian officials have identified the victim as John Allen Chau, 27. They added that he was illegally ferried by fishermen to North Sentinel Island last week, part of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, a group of islands in the Bay of Bengal between India and Burma.

“Adventure awaits. So do leeches,” read the final post on his Instagram account, dated Nov. 2. On his Facebook profile, Chau described himself as a “soccer coach, traveller, and writer.” He often posted images of his worldwide exploits online, such as hikes in Washington state and prior trips to India.

Dependera Pathak, director-general of police on India's Andaman and Nicobar Islands, told the Associated Press that Chau arrived in the region on Oct. 16 and stayed in a hotel while he prepared to visit the prohibited island.

He said Chau organized his visit to the island through a friend who hired seven fishermen for $325 to take him there on a boat, which also towed his kayak.

Chau went ashore in his kayak on Nov. 15 and sent the boat with the fishermen out to sea to avoid detection, Pathak said. He interacted with some of the tribespeople, giving them gifts he had prepared such as a football and fish. But the tribespeople became angry and shot an arrow at him which apparently hit a book he was carrying, Pathak said.

The American's kayak became damaged, so he swam to the fishermen's boat, which was waiting at a prearranged location. There he spent the night and wrote out his experiences on pages of paper which he gave to the fishermen, Pathak said.

In one of the notes handed over, according to the New York Times, Chau wrote about Jesus bestowing him with the strength to visit some of the most forbidden places on Earth.

Chau then set off for the island again the following day. Sources who spoke to AFP though said once he set foot on shore, he was “attacked by arrows but he continued walking.

“The fishermen saw the tribals tying a rope around his neck and dragging his body,” one source added.

Following Chau's death, the fishermen left for Port Blair, the capital of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, where they informed Chau's friend, who notified his family, Pathak said.

He said the family got in touch with Indian police and U.S. consular officials.

"It was a case of misdirected adventure," he added.

The body, according to Reuters, has not yet been recovered as of Wednesday, and those who took him to the island are said to have been arrested.

"The investigation in this matter is on," senior police officer Deepak Yadav said, announcing that the seven fishermen have been taken into custody.

Did this dummy spend even five minutes Googling "North Sentinel Island" before going on his "adventure"? Turns out they don't like visitors.

Just another liberal gone to his just desserts...Liberals do have a deathwish, especially when it comes to "FEEL GOOD" moments..

Liberal? He was a Christian missionary.

The OP said the guy was a LIBERAL with no evidence to support that. CNN lies but the OP doesn`t?

OP said nothing of the sort. You should work on reading comprehension, bro.

Now these people arent even human in your eyes? Sorry, but i consider them to be humans. You expect them to not know right from wrong. Murder has and always will be bad. We all know it.

Put yourself in their shoes. Would you allow someone to associate with you knowing they can give you deadly diseases? The tribe knows foreigners can infect them.

 

[QuickHitCurepon]

No, i want an armed tactical unit to go in and find out who did it. Anyone who shoots an arrow dies. Round up the entire tribe and through crude comminication, make them give up who killed him.

You can't even force people to "talk" here in the US.

 

[WinterBorn]

Funny that I have seen people calling these natives evil for killing him, but are fine with shooting people in the caravan that is coming through Mexico.

 

[WinterBorn]

So let me guess you go into a tigers cage , get killed and want the tigers killed?

Now these people arent even human in your eyes? Sorry, but i consider them to be humans. You expect them to not know right from wrong. Murder has and always will be bad. We all know it.

They are not civilized and never will be.


.

You take their babies and raise them in the US, i bet they turn out perfectly fine. No murders at all.

So you want the final solution?

.

No, i want an armed tactical unit to go in and find out who did it. Anyone who shoots an arrow dies. Round up the entire tribe and through crude comminication, make them give up who killed him.

So I guess you will be cheering for Courts Martial for any soldier firing on, and killing, anyone in the caravan coming through Mexico?

I can't believe this stupid thread brought out so much retardation in people. Fuckin' people talking about Matthew Shephard now.

It was my understanding that Mr. Shepherd went into the Wyoming bar to convert straight men into homosexuality, and they objected with extreme prejudice.

 

[Asclepias]

These were the first people to leave Africa

And you know that how?

Time to wipe out these savages.

Because I am smarter than you.

Sounds like something a savage white monkey like you would say.

 

[QuickHitCurepon]

They didnt "achieve minding their own business", it happened because they suck and never developed ship building and navigation. They havent even invented the wheel or fire for christ sake.

They should call you Codboy because your arguments smell kind of fishy.

Because I am smarter than you.

Sounds like something a savage white monkey like you would say

Why do the dark races never evolve until the white man arrives?

He should have realized that interfering with hetero culture is a capital offence.

Sounds like something a savage white monkey like you would say

Why do the dark races never evolve until the white man arrives?

Why do white people not remember they were cave people until Blacks taught them not to eat each other?

Lol
Boy,
All nationalities/races have practiced Cannibalization at one time or another...
Category:Tribal societies that have practiced cannibalism - Wikipedia
That’s just like saying white people invented slavery… We all know that not to be true.
My ancestors, American Indians were the original slave owners on this continent... lol

 

[Rustic]

Yeah its not like this is the first time either. These people are smart. They dont want anyone coming to fuck up their island. These were the first people to leave Africa.

You should respect the Borders of other Nations, the guy was warned by just like any Liberal decided he was special.

Has nothing to do with being a liberal. This guy was a religious nutcase like most conservatives.

Catholics represent Catholics and only Catholics… It has nothing to do with Christianity

I started this as a throwaway thread, because I found it interesting. Now I'm going through 40 pages about Obama, Matthew Shephard, etc. Never change, USMB. Happy Thanksgiving.

Another journalist killed under Trump. How long we gonna tolerate these attacks on media and 1st Amendment?

We definitely need to declare war on that tribe.

Yeah all 50 of them. Maybe you can even be part of it since they dont have any guns. You would be pretty much guaranteed safety.
