Somali Pirates
One of the latest happenings in and around the world is the capturing of the ship where the captain was held hostage by the pirates of Somali. They used a life boat and even after pursuing the ship for five hours they failed to hijack the US-flagged Maersk Alabama. Though the demands of the pirates remain unknown officials think that they might ask for a ransom or a compensation of their lost boat which happened during the attack. The crew reached the Kenyan port without the captain who was still held hostage hundreds of miles away from the shore. A crew member told that it was a terrifying at the same time an exciting experience and also added that the Captain was the hero.
