Release Confirmed

The reports about the release of the “MV Suez” appear to have been correct.

The vessel with its 22 crew, held captive by Somali pirates for over 10 months, has now been confirmed as released and the crew are set to return home in the coming days.

The release materialised after the continuous efforts of Pakistan-based Ansar Burney Trust, which is run by Pakistan’s former federal minister for human rights, Ansar Burney.
