After reaching the coast of Somalia, the pirates reportedly gave the crew access to the cabin from the bridge of the MV Abdullah ship. And on this occasion a sailor sent a voice message to his brother.
The sailor's younger brother received this voice message around 4:45 pm on Thursday (March 14). The sailor said in the voice message that they are healthy but mentally disturbed This information is known from a report of Deutsche Welle.
The sailor said, 'A navy ship arrived yesterday.' A Navy ship arrived today as well A total of two well equipped ships wanted to rescue us But it was not possible.'
He said, "They (pirates) hold us hostage, hold guns to our heads." They took us hostage after seeing the Navy's big frigate They are not afraid of these big ships.'
He also said, 'The pirates have not hurt anyone so far. However, when I turn to the side where I sleep, I find huge machine guns pointed at me In this state, sleep is what happens. Still trying to stay healthy despite being mentally stressed.'
The food on board is being eaten by the pirates along with them and thus it is likely to run out in no time
In this regard, he said, Alhamdulillah, there is still food But, since the pirates are also eating with us, using our water, I cannot say how long our food will last. And maybe 10-15 days can go Then when we run out of food, we will be in a lot of trouble. When the water runs out, I will be in a lot of trouble
After reaching the coast of Somalia, he said that the pirates had a good relationship with the crew members. Today we came to Somalia. We have a good relationship with them. Tell them how many we came to the cabin. But you have to go to the bridge again.
The sailor added, "I hope to be able to return to my family soon." We want to be able to return to the family before Eid.
