The investigations for the maritime tragedy between the ferry Durres-Bari and a Maltese cargo ship are being held in Bari.

The investigations are being conducted by Turkish and Maltese investigators, in cooperation with the Italian Prosecution.

The latter has asked the Durres Prosecution all the data and evidence that have been collected for this matter.

A few days earlier, the Turkish frigate TCG Barbaros interrupted the searching mission at the Durres coastline for the eight lost sailors.

The tragedy happened last month, when the ferry had a collision with the ship that sank in a few minutes.

The only two survivors of the 10 person crew had no health problems, but were shocked by the tragedy.

The passengers of the “Ankara” ferry declared that everything had happened very fast.
