Yangtze ship disaster: Chinese salvagers right Eastern Star
|
|
Chinese salvagers have fully righted the ship which capsized on the Yangtze River, on which more than 400 people are thought to have died. 1>Most of the 14 people known to have survived jumped from the ship as it began to sink. Three were rescued by divers from air pockets in the upturned hull. 2>The cause of the sinking is not yet known, but survivors have spoken of an intense storm which flipped the boat over in minutes. 3>The captain and chief engineer, who were among those who escaped, have since been detained. 4>Maritime agency records showed the ship was investigated for safety violations two years ago. It was held alongside five other vessels in 2013 over safety concerns. 5>China's deadliest maritime disaster in recent decades was in November 1999, when the Dashun ferry caught fire and capsized in the sea off Shandong province, killing about 280. 6>The Eastern Star could become China's deadliest boat accident since the SS Kiangya sank off Shanghai in 1948, killing somewhere between 2,750 and 4,000 people. http://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-china-33011557 |

Will the captain be sentenced to death ? As I know ,the captain was sentenced to death in korea sinking.Although the same is sinking,the captain of korea gave up saving the tourists'lives,the captain of Eastern Star just could do nothing to save the tourists'lives because of the intense storm.Dispite that,he still had to assume some legal responsibility. I hope the law is fair on this。 |
