Ghanaian officials say still no trace of missing Chinese fishermen three weeks after alleged abduction

Officials in Ghana have confirmed there is still no trace of the three Chinese fishermen who were allegedly kidnapped by pirates late last month.

The missing seafarers include the captain, the chief mate, and the chief engineer of the Ghana-registered fishing vessel Mengxin 1, which the Ghanaian military said was boarded by seven armed perpetrators in the late afternoon (local time) of March 27.
