The captain of an oil tanker that collided with a cargo ship and sank off Istanbul leaving 10 crew missing has been arrested along with his third-in-command on charges of negligent homicide, prosecutors said on Friday.
The pair were arrested by a court late on Thursday, a day after the pre-dawn collision in which the ALSU, an empty oil tanker, struck the Tuğberk İmamoğlu, a cargo vessel carrying rolled steel, in the Sea of Marmara near Istanbul.
