The "Van Manila" was seized after a Shanghai Maritime Court ruling, following the claim of the relatives of the missing crew members of the cargo m/v "Xiang Zhou" (IMO-No.: 8747147), which had sunk on Apr 6 east of Yangtze estuary after the collision with the container ship. Of the 14 crew members, only two were rescued, and the other 12 went missing. The Korean master of the "Van Manila" had switched the AIS off after the accident and fled the collision site. The ship had been leaving Shanghai at the time of collision. It was ordered back to the port and was being anchored at Shanghai anchorage since Apr 6.
