14/03/2024![]() MV Abdullah anchored around 2 pm at Hobyo port, he said adding "However, man does not live by words alone, despite the fact that sometimes he has to eat them... none of the pirates has contacted the owners and made any demand to them." He also assumed that the pirates would contact Bangladesh authorities soon. On Tuesday, pirates took control of the ship, carrying coal from Mozambique’s Maputo port to Al Hamriyah Port in the UAE, around noon. During the hijacking, the vessel was 600 nautical miles off Mogadishu in Somalia. MV Abdullah is owned by SR Shipping Lines — a sister company of Chattogram-based Kabir Steel and Rerolling Mill (KSRM) Group. Mizanul Islam, spokesperson of KSRM, said they have heard that the vessel anchored at Somalia port but the pirates have not communicated yet. |
