Kochi, Nov 14 (PTI) A French yacht has been seized by CISF personnel after it was found in the vicinity of the Kochi port area without valid documents. The yacht was seized last night, CISF sources said today.

Owner of the yacht ''ANDRANA'', Pignol and a US national Malcolm Russell Williamson who were on board, are being questioned by Customs and Immigration officials, the sources told PTI. Pignol said they had set sail from Oman and were on their way to Madagascar before they landed near Kochi due to rough seas and bad climatic conditions.
