Bulkcarrier boarded by robbers off Belawan
The duty crew member of the "Tomini Dynasty", which was anchored in position 03 54 40N, 098 47 25E, at the Belawan Anchorage, noticed a small boat near the anchor chain on Aug 22, 2019, at 6.30 p.m. He instructed the occupant of the boat to move away, as the vessel was about to heave up the anchor. As he was about to raise alarm, two armed robbers who had already boarded the vessel, held him at knife point and tied him up. When the vessel was ready to heave up the anchor, the remaining crew members proceeded to the forecastle. On seeing these crew members approaching, the robbers snatched the duty crew member's portable radio and escaped through the hawse pipe after opening the security cover. The incident was reported to Port Control. When the bulk carrier was berthed, the Marine Police boarded the vessel for carrying out investigation.
