This morning, a Chinese ship named MV Sheng Wen arrived at Paradip Port. The arrival has triggered an investigation because the ship has three Ghanaian nationals on board. Currently, the ship is under tight security, and no one is allowed to leave.
The MV Sheng Wen, which came from Kavkaz Port in Russia, has a crew of 20. The Paradip Immigration Office has issued a notice to the ship and stationed security personnel around it. The vessel had previously docked at several foreign ports, but it’s unclear where the Ghanaian nationals boarded.
Authorities are urgently investigating the situation to understand the reasons behind the presence of these three Ghanaian nationals. The ship is being monitored closely, and the Ghanaian crew members will not be permitted to disembark at any Indian port. The ship will continue its journey only after the investigation is complete.
The Paradip Port Authority has informed the shipping authorities about the situation. They are ensuring that the ship adheres to all regulations while the investigation is ongoing..
