For over a year, 12 crew members of a supply vessel, most of them from India (Navi Mumbai and Mumbai), have been detained at the Aberdeen Port, north east Scotland, after their company went bankrupt. The crew has not been paid their salary by the company, M/s Gol Offshore Ltd since then, making life difficult for their loved ones in India. On the vessel for over a year, their fuel and food are also running out.
