TRAPPED ABOARD A SHIP FOR FOUR YEARS

Impact stories

For Aisha, 2021 is his fourth year stuck on this floating prison. And he is alone. Completely alone. His physical and mental health are deteriorating daily. He is without power or light. He swims to shore for basics like food and water, risking his life every time he does so. He swims to collect them, and he is forced to swim back. According to the law, the MV Aman is his problem, and his problem alone. At least until its someone else’s.

 

I have had to swim to shore every few days to get food and water
