Vice Admiral Charles Style told reporters that the Iranians had provided a position on Sunday - a location that he said was in Iraqi waters. By Tuesday, Iranian officials had given a revised position about three km east, placing the British inside Iranian waters - a claim he said was not verified by global positioning system co-ordinates.

"It is hard to understand a legitimate reason for this change of co-ordinates," Style said.

He said the satellite co-ordinates of the British crew had been confirmed by an Indian-flagged merchant ship boarded by the sailors and marines.

Mottaki denied this, saying: "That's not true. It happened in Iranian territorial waters."

What will they do now? Change their mind and admit guilt or go in and get them out......hmmmm, they must know where they are, after seeing the pictures...one would think.

Not very good liars, are they?
