Somali pirates free a tanker

Pirates are not a thing of the past as these pirates in Somalia took a 23 bodied crew hostage for over five months. The ship that was taken over was carrying phosphoric acid from Senegal to India. the pirates demanded 5 million in ransom charges but over time that amount went down to about 2 million. all members of the Filipino tanker are happy to have been released.
