Iran demanded $5 lakh to free Indian oil tanker

Authorities at Iran's Bandar Abbas port are said to have demanded $5,00,000 from India to release the tanker Desh Shanti, which was carrying crude from Iraq. Desh Shanti was held to ransom by Iranian authorities — spearheaded by the dreaded Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) — for 26 days.
