Police have detained the ship’s captain and seven crew members as part of the investigation into the Filo Jet’s capsize off Kyrenia. The detentions follow passenger allegations that doors were locked and that the captain left the vessel as it began taking on water.

Investigators are also examining claims that the ferry started taking on water shortly after departure and that crew ignored passenger warnings. The transport ministry has opened a separate inquiry in parallel with the police investigation.
