More details are emerging over the Mauritius oil spill as the probe into the incident continues. The captain of the boat at the center of inquiry, Captain Sunil Kumar Nandeshwar, told the inquiry committee that he steered the vessel near the shore to look for internet connection. "There was no internet on the ship and I agreed to dock in Mauritius so that the crew members could communicate with their relatives as it helps keep the morale of the crew high,” said Captain Sunil Kumar Nandeshwar. The captain said he used to sail 15 nautical miles off Mauritius but this time round he came closer to 5 nautical miles.
