ITF Reports Abandonment of RAKAN 5 Amidst Wage Issues
The International Transport Workers' Federation (ITF) has flagged the vessel RAKAN 5 (IMO: 8922199) for abandonment, raising concerns about the welfare of its crew. Registered under the Comoros flag and stationed at the port of Aden in Yemen, the RAKAN 5 has been the subject of complaints due to unpaid wages amounting to 10 months for its crew. A total of 20 seafarers, including nationals from India and Syria, are currently affected by this situation. The abandonment report was submitted to the ITF on January 1, 2024, and remains under open status as the federation works to address the plight of these seafarers. This case is part of the ITF's ongoing commitment to monitoring and tackling incidents of crew abandonment globally, ensuring the rights and safety of all maritime workers are upheld.
