CHENNAI: Three fishermen at Ponneri near Chennai have recovered two unidentified objects from the seas, police said.

Dhanapal, Sarkarai and Raj Kumar, hailing from the Arangam Kuppam and Light House Kuppam near Ponneri, ventured into the sea for fishing a few days ago. They went up to the seas off the Sriharikota coast in Andhra Pradesh and returned with their catch on Wednesday.

They pulled out the fishing net and found two cylindrical objects caught in it. They removed the objects and found a small working LED lamp on both of them. The panicked fishermen informed the Thirupalaivanam police. The police recovered the objects and informed their seniors.

The police found some inscriptions -- C-02-15821 -- on the objects and they were orange in colour.

The Thirupalaivanam police registered a case and informed the Army about the seizure to find out whether the objects belonged to the armed forces.
