One seafarer from Swedish Management’s 27,000-dwt Rising Falcon (built 2007) was picked up from the water and arrested for illegally entering the territory.
He was suffering from shock and hypothermia.
The Gibraltar Chronicle said no charges were pressed in the end and the man was cautioned instead.
He was allowed to board another vessel controlled by the same company.
According to the rescued crewman, he and another Syrian national jumped from the ship on Saturday with the intention of swimming to shore.
