Migrant ship hijackers 'used knives'

(ANSA) - ROME, JUN 9 - Some 15 migrants who hijacked a Turkish ship off Naples used knives to overpower the 22-man crew, sources said Friday after Italian special forces retook the vessel.
    The migrants were clandestines who were hidden aboard the ship that was heading for France.
    The captain sounded the alarm and phoned for rescue services.
    The Guardia di Finanza tax police and port authority ensured safety at sea while the special forces intervened directly on board the ship. (ANSA).
