Island Princess returns today

Feb 08, 2010 News

The ill-fated cargo vessel Island Princess is due in Guyana today.
Its owner, Errol Prince, told Kaieteur News that the vessel was finally released on Thursday after police officials here contacted their counterparts in Grenada.
The vessel set sail from Grenada on Friday and is expected to reach Guyana sometime in the evening today.
Mr. Prince said that he had sent a crew to Grenada some two weeks ago to prepare the vessel for its return.
The Island Princess and its four-man crew disappeared in late September 2009, reportedly during a trial run to test its seaworthiness for a scheduled trip to Trinidad.
The gutted bodies of its captain, Titus Buckley Nascimento, 46, and the engineer, 25-year-old Mahendra Singh, were found at Zeelandia, Wakenaam, and on the Hamburg Island seashore respectively.
A third gutted body, identified as that of 23-year-old Ryan Chin, was found near the Queenstown, Essequibo foreshore.
The bodies all bore bullet wounds.
The fourth crew member, 46-year-old crewman Rickford Bannister, was never found.
The Island Princess subsequently reappeared off the coast of Grenada in October, 2009.
