Pirater truer med at sprænge supertanker

De somaliske pirater der for tre uger siden kaprede den koreanske supertanker Samho Dream i Det Indiske Ocean, truer nu med at sprænge det tungtlastede olieskib i luften, hvis ikke de får udbetalt 20 millioner dollar i løsesum.

Samme trussel gælder, hvis den koreanske destroyer, der befinder sig få sømil fra den kaprede supertanker, forsøger at tilbageerobre Samho Dream med magt.

Om bord på tankskibet, der er ankret op ud for piraternes hovedby Hobyo, befinder sig en 24 mand stor besætning, bestående af fem sydkoreanske officerer og 19 filippinske søfolk.

Samho Dream var på vej fra Irak til USA, fuldt lastet med for råolie til en værdi af 160 millioner dollar, da kapringen fandt sted.
