If you get a chance to take a stroll inside the present-day terminal of Chattogram Port, a world of mechanical marvels awaits.
In December, a historic deal marked the start of a new era for port management across the country as Bangladesh welcomed its first foreign port operator.
Nine days after the hijacking of Bangladeshi bulk career MV Abdullah, pirates yesterday made first contact with the ship’s owning firm KSRM Group through a third party.
The pirates who hijacked the Bangladeshi bulk career MV Abdullah were yet to contact the ship’s owning firm or any third party for ransom as of yesterday.
The pirates took the Bangladesh-flagged ship 45 to 50 nautical miles to the north and anchored it 4 nautical miles off the coast of Godobjiran town of Somalia yesterday evening.
The hostages on board the hijacked Bangladesh-flagged ship were taken to their cabins from the bridge after the pirates anchored the vessel as dawn broke over the Somali port of Garacad.
