Russian crew wants to be repatriated
The Russian crew of the 'Jireh which has been detained in Dorset has no money and was desperate to return home. The ship, en route to Senegal from Norway, previously asked to berth in Jersey and then Guernsey before heading to Portland where it broke down. The Sailors' Society was working with the authorities to repatriate the nine people on board. They were working with the Stella Maris chaplaincy - also known as the Apostleship of the Sea - as well as the port, Border Force and police to help the stranded crew members. They were supplied with food, a phone and wi-fi. The Maritime and Coastguard Agency had detained the ship for not complying with merchant shipping regulations for its direction of travel and for failing to meet on-board living standards. It will remain detained until it is fully compliant with these regulations.
