On 14 April, 33 days after being taken over by pirates, the MV Abdullah was released.
The ship was escorted through the high-risk area by warships from India and the European Union.
Currently, there are no more guards as the ship has already crossed the high-risk zone. The vessel is being monitored via satellite, the Kabir Group said.
The vessel will return to Chattogram after discharging coal at the Dubai Port. It is expected to reach Bangladesh in the first week of May with 21 sailors. The other two will travel through air.
The MV Abdullah was taken hostage by Somali pirates on 12 March in the Indian Ocean on its way from Mozambique to Dubai with 55,000 metric tonnes of coal.
