Mogadishu (HOL) — Early Sunday morning, the crew of the MV Abdullah, a Bangladeshi-flagged cargo ship, was freed from Somali pirates after an intense negotiation process that spanned several weeks. The ship and its 23 crew members had been held since March 12, when pirates hijacked the vessel approximately 600 nautical miles from Mogadishu, Somalia.
