PIRATES-INDIA 2 LAST
After the incident, the vessel altered course and is
now heading towards the northern coast of Somalia.
St James Park had a crew of 26 and was hijacked while
it was in the Gulf of Aden Internationally Recognized Transit
Corridor.
"The vessel is now somewhere at a location off the
Somalian coast. The shipping company has been trying to
contact the vessel on its phone at regular intervals, but they
are yet to establish any contact," said Capt M M Saggi,
nautical advisor to the government of India.
The seized vessel had issued distress messages which
were received by the Greek rescue and coordination centre in
Piraeus, which relayed those to the International Maritime
Bureau and other agencies Tuesday. PTI SD
