Doomed Kiribati ferry crew drunk, victims died horribly

This video screengrab received from the New Zealand Defence Force on January 28, 2018, and taken from a Royal New Zealand Air Force P-3K2 Orion aircraft shows a 5m dinghy adrift at sea in the Pacific Ocean with seven people on board, survivors from a ferry carrying 50 that was reported missing in Kiribati waters more than a week previously. – AFP pic, October 8, 2019.

CREW members of an overloaded Kiribati ferry which sank in the Pacific claiming 95 lives were drunk, leaving passengers to die slow deaths from starvation and hypothermia, a damning report has found. The report gives the first official account of the loss of the ferry MV Butiraoi, which sank in January last year after setting off from Nonouti island bound for the capital Tarawa.
