Samho Jewelry Sailors Arrive in Korea The seven remaining Korean crewmen that were rescued recently aboard the hijacked Samho Jewelry cargo ship arrived back home this morning.

The sailors who were rescued from the hands of Somali pirates a little over a week ago arrived at Busan's Gimhae International Airport at around 8:50 A.M. Korea time just in time for the start of the Lunar New Year holiday.

After meeting with their families the men headed to the Korea Coast Guard South Regional Headquarters to be questioned as witnesses to the hijacking.

Meanwhile, there have been reports that a non-Korean crew member of the Samho Jewelry witnessed Captain Seok Hae-Kyun being shot by one of the five pirates, who were captured alive during the rescue operation and brought back to Korea to face legal proceedings.

Stay tuned for more updates on this story throughout the day.
