Seaman Guard Ohio charges dropped

摘要

Six British former servicemen who spent months imprisoned in India on weapons offences have had all charges against them dropped. The six were among a 35-member crew of the anti-piracy supply vessel Seaman Guard Ohio, owned by US private security firm Advanfort. The crewmen were accused of illegally possessing weapons after they were arrested in October 2013. Five of them were bailed in April but ordered to remain in India.
