They were stranded in the middle of Marmara. 10 Indian sailors have not been able to leave the ship for 8 months

Amar Shakti Nag, who worked as the third engineer on the ship, said, "It is very difficult to stay on the ship. Because the company does not provide us with food or water. We had friends who had health problems. They do not care about this. We have not been paid for 8 months. We are in such a situation that we had to boil and drink sea water." he said.

THERE ARE MORE THAN 10 SHIPS LIKE "ALAN"

The ship named "Alan" has actually been off the coast of Tuzla for 3 years. While the ship's route was unknown, the personnel changed, but after a while the payments stopped. There are also more than 10 ships such as “Alan” in the region.

International Transport Workers Federation (ITF) Lawyer Sinan Ünlü said, "The ship loses its economic value. As soon as it loses its economic value, no one takes responsibility. None of the ships abandoned here have Turkish flags, all of them have foreign flags, and the personnel are not Turkish, but the ships are abandoned here because Türkiye is on the transit route." he said.
