At Windows to Russia, we remember the Arctic Sea Pirate Attack. It has been quite awhile and the courts are finally done passing the sentences on the pirates involved…
So a Russian court sentenced on Thursday six people involved in a pirate attack on the Arctic Sea vessel in July 2009 to prison terms from seven to ten years in a high-security jail…
The Arctic Sea went missing in the Atlantic on July 24, 2009, while carrying a $2 million shipment of timber from Finland to Algeria. It was intercepted by the Russian Navy off West Africa on August 17 and eight hijackers were arrested…
