Seven Russians kidnapped in a pirate attack on a vessel in the territorial waters of Nigeria, reported the Russian Embassy in that country
Here is how it happened (in brief) according to Pavel Fedulov, the director of a Briese Schiffahrts subsidiary in St Petersburg.
“The armed pirates approached (the vessel) in a boat, captured the crew and left on the boat at the direction of the Nigerian shores,” he said
He also said no firearms were used during the attack, he was quoted as saying. That’s quite brazen.
