“The crew are currently on their way to be reunited with their loved ones. We are extremely pleased to have been conveying this good news to all the families and friends of our seafarers,” the company added.
“All crew have received medical checks and given the circumstances are in a relatively good condition.
ForestWave would like to thank all the relevant authorities and advisors for their help in securing the release of our valued seafarers.”
The mariners were sailing on board the Dutch-flagged FWN Rapide, built in 2005, from Takoradi, Ghana to Port Harourt, Nigeria when they came under attack from pirates.
Four crew members managed to escape pirate hands during the attack.
受襲貨船的ForestWave經理通知，於4月21日在尼日利亞哈科特港FWN Rapide的11名船員被扣留，並在過去四周內被囚禁，已經被釋放且安全。
“船員目前正在與他們的親人團聚。我們非常高興向海員的所有家人和朋友傳達這個好消息，“該公司補充說。
“所有船員都接受了體檢並且情況相對良好。
ForestWave感謝所有相關機構和顧問在確保我們尊貴的海員獲釋方面的幫助。“
這些水手在2005年建造的荷蘭旗幟FWN Rapide上航行，從加納的塔科拉迪到尼日利亞哈特爾港，當時他們受到海盜襲擊。
襲擊期間，四名船員設法逃脫海盜。
