突尼斯的一名法官拘留了一艘商船的七名船员。一名司法官员周三宣布，这艘商船已在加贝市附近沉没，当局正在彻底调查该船是否是故意沉没。

A judge from Tunisia detained seven members of a commercial ship’s crew. The commercial ship had sunk off the city of Gabes, a judicial official declared on Wednesday, as authorities thoroughly investigated if the vessel may have sunk deliberately.

突尼斯官员表示，本月，载有多达1000吨石油的Xelo号油轮在从赤道几内亚开往马耳他的途中沉没，突尼斯海军成功营救了所有船员。

Tunisian officials had said that this month the Xelo sank as it was sailing to Malta from Equatorial Guinea, loaded with up to 1,000 tonnes of oil and the Tunisian navy was able to rescue all crew members.

官员们后来提到，一个专门的潜水队被要求应对可能发生的环境灾难。该公司发现货物没有装载燃料，而是被认为是空的。

Officials later mentioned that a specialized diving team was asked to counter a probable environmental disaster. It found that the cargo was not loaded with fuel, but rather was seen to be empty.

加布斯法院发言人***·卡拉伊早些时候曾表示，已进行调查，以确定该船是否在正常情况下沉没，或者沉没是为了从保险公司获得赔偿，并检查石油走私的可能性。

Mohamed Karay, a Gabes’ court spokesman had earlier said that an investigation was conducted to see if the ship sank under usual circumstances or was made to sink to get compensation from insurance majors and to check the oil smuggling possibility as well.

船上的船员是两名阿塞拜疆人，四名土耳其人和一名格鲁吉亚人。船员还补充说，航线记录也丢失了。船员们补充说，他们共享的信息存在某种问题。

The crew members of the ship were two Azerbaijanis, four Turks, and one from Georgia. The crew also added that the route documentation was lost. The members added that there had been some sort of issue with the information they shared.

路透社未能立即联系到船员、船主或法律代表。

Reuters was not able to contact the crew, the owner of the ship, or legal representatives immediately.
