Seks søfolk kidnappet i Guinea-bugten

Så skete det igen. Bevæbnede pirater jagtede og bordede et fiskefartøj omkring 60 sømil syd for havnen i Cotonou i Benin. Seks fiskere blev kidnappet og speedbåden med pirater og fiskere er sidst siet på vej mod nigeriansk farvand, oplyser det maritime sikkerhedsfirma Dryad.

“Dette er det syvende tilfælde i farvandet i 2020. Det skete sidste gang 14. maj, da et fartøj blev jagtet 106 sømil syd for Cotonou,” oplyser Dryad.

Guinea-bugten er ifølge den seneste rapport fra IMB fortsat verdens hotspot for pirateri.

I det første kvartal af 2020 blev der rapporteret om 21 angreb

primært foretaget af bevæbnede pirater, der jagter skibe i speedbåde for at stjæle fragt eller kidnappe besætningsmedlemmer for at forlange løsepenge.
