According to Indian authorities, Polyakovs journeyintothe Andaman Islands was meticulously planned.
He studied the tides and sea conditionsand set sail aboard an inflatable boat around 1amlocal time on March 29.
Traveling for 25 miles, he arrived at North Sentinel by 10 am.
For this reason, Indias laws punish unauthorized entry toNorth Sentinelwith three to five years in prison.
His actions were reckless and idiotic.
He lost his life in the process
Polyakov is not the first outsider to attempt contact with the Sentinelese.

The missionary met his end two days later, with the fishermen reportedly seeing the tribe dragging his body.
