story of a hostage to piracy

[dentopia11]

Hey everyone,
I normally do not post such stories and i know it has little relevance to the usual discussion here but this one has touched quite close to home with a relative unfortunately being stuck on the ship.
The ship in question has been taken hostage and there really has been no action taken by the respective governments. meanwhile members on the ship continue to suffer from the harsh conditions...this is an account from the daughter of the captain on the ship. such a situation should have been brought into awareness given that the ship has been under hostage for almost 2 years...but unfortunately most of the major news sources have not covered the story at all...

the ship in question is the same one where an American and Danish hostage were recently held but thankfully freed:

Such a sad and tragic story. Had the ship owner had insurance cover, the hostages would have been freed long ago, but these hostages seem to be in an impossible situation. My heart goes out to them and their familieis, but unfortunately, this is of no help.
