Iran fishermen land huge sturgeon
Iranian fishermen are reported to have caught a giant sturgeon containingtwenty-four kilos of caviar.
The fish, three-metres long, was caught off the Caspian port of Bandar Azali.
Iran is trying to boost production of caviar, which has declined in recent years because of illegal fishing and oil pollution.
