The Stena Impero and its 23 crew have been impounded at the southern port of Bandar Abbas for allegedly breaking “international maritime rules”. The vessel is at the heart of the showdown between Iran and Britain.India announced on Thursday that its diplomats in Iran had been given access to Stena Impero crew.

Images from inside the ship released by Iran on Monday showed some Indian crew sat around a table, chatting and smiling. Two members could be seen cooking in the ship’s kitchen.
