Families鈥 anger as 50 missing from SK ship
Print Edition
MORE than 50 crew members of a South Korean fishing vessel that sank in the western Bering Sea were feared dead yesterday, as furious relatives blamed the ship’s owner and captain for not doing enough to save their loved ones a day earlier.
Russian coast guard helicopters and fishing ships were scouring the area, with authorities finding at least one empty lifeboat yesterday. Officials with the ship’s South Korean parent company said they were hanging onto a “glimmer of hope.”
At a gathering at the company’s headquarters, relatives of the missing fishermen wondered whether the captain was too late in taking emergency measures after the ship started sinking amid high waves Monday. Some blamed Sajo Industries, the canned tuna company that owns the ship, for not ordering him to evacuate the vessel earlier, according to Kim Kang-ho, a company official.
Onboard were 35 Indonesians, 13 Filipinos, 11 South Koreans and a Russian inspector, a South Korean fisheries and oceans ministry official said.
