The crew realised that the master, Juri Kharytonov, was missing when the ship was sailing between the Elba and Corsica islands in the Thyrrenian Sea. They then raised the alarm and police in Genoa were alerted, according to Singapore's Splash 24/7.
When the vessel arrived at the Voltri Terminal Europa at the port of Genoa the investigator placed in charge by the local court initiated legal proceedings and the vessel was arrested.
Each member of the Ukrainian crew were questioned for hours but none of them could give any useful information about the master's disappearance.
