| [217.218.67.231] Six Turkish crew members of a fat merchantman have been kidnapped by pirates off the coast of Nigeria. The pirates attacked the Turkish vessel, named the M/T Puli, in the early hours of Monday while it was reportedly carrying chemicals from Gabon to Ivory Coast through the oil-rich Niger Delta. "All the six Turkish crew members, including the captain of the vessel, the chief officer and the chief engineer, were kidnapped by the attackers," Nigerian Navy front man Chris Ezekobe told AFP. |
