According to the report, the divers spotted the baby sharks around the same area in Hantu Jetty, some 11 meters underwater. All had puncture wounds near their gills, as well as ripped mouths. Marine Stewards believes the little sharks were initially caught in a net, where they were “spiked to death” with hooks before being dumped back in the ocean.
